I am running sqlite 3.3.5 on Microsoft Windows, and sqlite 3.2.2 on CentOS 
(because that's the version that comes with CentOS).

Should the data files produced by these two versions be binary compatible? 
I.e. can I transfer the db files between the two machines and continue to 
use them with the two different sqlite3 versions?

I ask because I think I have occasionally seen records "disappear" when 
looking at a 3.2.2 data file using 3.3.5.

If they are not binary compatible, I presume I will have to downgrade the 
Windows version to 3.2.2, as I expect upgrading the CentOS one will break 
all the other CentOS applications which are already using databases in 
3.2.2 format.

If the two versions are supposed to be binary compatible, could it be 
something to do with a Windows/Linux difference?

If there shouldn't be any incompatilibity, I will put some effort into 
reproducing the problem, and reporting it through the usual channels.
