The ROOT maintainer for the group at SLAC which is having the incompatibility problems (which is keeping them at an older version of ROOT) told me that there are two reasons why they cannot upgrade to a newer version of ROOT: 1) Incompatible changes with the Vector classes. 2) Incompatible changes in the I/O subsystem. Although only a small part of their code (the Calorimetry subsystem) depends on the Vector classes, the rest of the collaboration is unable to upgrade to newer versions of ROOT because of the IO incompatibility. -- Matthew D.
