I know the following comments are not very helpful,
but I THINK there were problems with one one minor version number
difference: The reason that I think so is that I know this rule
now for a longer time, and I think that we didn't violate it,
but still had this problem.
However, I am not absolutely sure (maybe there were a difference
of two instead of one), and it would cost a lot of time for
us to try reproduce it (a svn dump / import needs all in all
about around 10 hours or so; the hang we had occurred if
one team member of us checked out from home, whcih run fine
for about one hour, and than hanging without server and client
activity anymore; upgrading and matching the svn-version
solved the problem).

However, I think if some older versions really had
compatibility problems, who cares?

Cheers,
Folker
