SCons upgrade: 2.3.0 -> recent

Hello,

some years back, I've inherited a project that used SCons. At that
time, we've used the scons version (<2.3.0) coming via Linux package
manager (apt).

One of the SCons updates broke our build system (I think the builds
abotred with "cyclic dependencies"), so I pinned the SCons version in
our project to 2.3.0.

Now we'd like to get rid of python2.7 dependencies and move to a recent
SCons version.


Could someone provide some information about the To-Dos, effort and
pitfalls for an upgrade to a recent version, let's say 4.5.2?

Does SCons provide backward compatibility, i.e. theoretically our build
scripts should run with a newer SCons version out-of-the-box?



Many thanks!
