Not really, at least we already had binary incompatibilities (for
example, BJoystick in R1/alpha1 is not compatible with BeOS nor
alpha2).
I wouldn't consider binary compatibility beyond what BeOS delivers
between the alphas a high priority, ie. it should be broken when there
is a good reason to do so.
