Rene says that upstream OOo claims to have retained ABI compatibility
along the years, but he also noticed that there were several changes
that required a new ooo-voikko between 3.0 and 3.1.

Still, he feels that compatibility should exists between minor updates
e.g. 3.1.0 to 3.1.2 should remain compatible. Also, a build should
remain compatible between a Release Candidate and the final release that
follows, so an ooo-voikko built against e.g. OOo 3.2.0-rc1 should still
work on 3.2.0 final.

The only question mark is whether upstream will make more unannounced
changes "that maintain ABI compatibility" between major updates e.g. 3.1
and 3.2; according to Rene, experience proves that this can never be
taken for granted.
