Yes. *Try* being the keyword. We think everything is
backwards-compatible and as far as Gump can tell it is. But from 4.0.5
(I think there's just a 4.0.4 actually?) to current trunk is a long way
(like, ehm, a few years).

At least consider upgrading avalon-framework. I'm *highly* confident
that's fully backwards-compatible and it has one or two bugfixes in
there that you want.

It should.

I don't think so.
