Further to my question of compatibility between 5.8.0 and
5.8.2, I was directed to the use of defining NO_HASH_SEED at
compile time, which does indeed maintain compatibility of
packages created with 5.8.2 when run under 5.8.0. So I was
misunderstanding what binary compatibility means in this
context - thanks, and sorry for the noise.
