Version Compatibility v8 --> MX ?

Saying that I've just seen a post on this forum (Director MX behaving
strangely!) which you might (although it depends on your state of mind at
the moment ;-) whether you want to look at it or not right now, doesn't look
like good news) want to look at. It was posted by stunt-monkey, have a look
and start worrying, I've been playing with MX and converted a few files
which seem fine, but I haven't released anything converted from 8 yet. Now
it seems I have a good reason why not to even try.
