The section
http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/node15.html
is meant to cover incompatible changes. It shows that there is
no 100% compatibility, but that only "borderline" code is affected.
Probably the most significant change is that 0xC0000000 is now
a positive number, when it used to be negative on 32-bit systems.
