When a minor-point upgrade happens and it breaks backward-compatibility, there is something very wrong with the versioning or the major name of the software.
Either the major-version number should be changed (Python 31 to Python 32) or the project name should be changed (Python to Boa).
This is also a very common problem with GTK+ and some other major pieces of software.
