These are not obscure if you are using the feature, and we should have
a section (just after the description of new features) which discuss
porting/upgrade issues. I was planning on putting it in; it will need
to contain info on "datetime/timespan" vs "timestamp/interval" also
(probably the least "obscure" upgrade issue in the new release).
