The remark about versions means, that it *can* be incompatible
among chicken versions, for example if object layout changes.
If you have control over the installed chicken version, then this
is not a problem.

s11n is *not* intended as a general, platform-independent information
interchange format - it is intended as an efficient binary storage
format for arbitrary, even cyclic data.
