That will be a big issue.

Personally, I think that, while it might be possible to keep a good
amount of compatibility, 100% backwards compatibility shouldn't block
POV-Ray's evolution.  Some things will have to be broken, for the best.

I think (but might be wrong) that writing some kind of converter, to take
care of what's been broken, should be preferred instead of making an half-baked
SDL for the sake of compatibility.

Compromises...
