Hello, I've got a question about the release notes: Can it really be called binary compatible if it can introduce breakage in userland? I think that the required changes to userland are quite minimal but I'd understand binary compatible in a way that replacing a 9.0.0 binary by a 9.0.1 binary should'nt introduce any troubles at all, which according to the patch notes isn't really the case (at least on 64-bit arches.

# seL4 Version 9.0.1 Release Announcing the release of `seL4 9.0.1` with the following changes:
9.0.1 2018-04-18: BINARY COMPATIBLE
## Changes * On 64-bit architectures, the `label` field of `seL4_MessageInfo` is now 52 bits wide. User-level programs which use any of the following functions may break, if the program relies on these functions to mask the `label` field to the previous width of 20 bits. - `seL4_MessageInfo_new` - `seL4_MessageInfo_get_label` - `seL4_MessageInfo_set_label` * Initial prototype RISC-V architecture port. This port currently only supports running in 64-bit mode without FPU or or multicore support on the Spike simulation platform. There is *no verification* for this platform.
