Any compatibility breaking changes to SConsign DB / MemoryError in 4.1.0?

Hello,

We recently upgraded from SCons 3.1.2 to 4.1.0 and are facing some
"MemoryErrors" at the end of our builds (for completeness, the stack-trace
is in the end).
One hypothesis would attribute this to .sconsign.dblite incompatibilities.
Before we now introduce some clever version handling logic to purge those
files, I would like to know whether there were any changes breaking both
forward (as well as backward compatibility - in case we have to revert) of
the sconsign db files and if they would be listed in the release notes?

The only related entry in the release notes that I could find is for 4.0.0:
"NOTE: If you used Python 3.8 with SCons 3.0.0 or above, you may get a a
pickle protocol error. Remove your .sconsign.dblite. You will end up with a
full rebuild."
But we did not get such pickle errors.

Thanks,
Markus
