Regarding compatibility:
This might not break too much stuff as we kept the original backend
path(s) at their location. Most obvious fix for other clients is
changing the reading of the backend location from the frontend directory,
but the old behaviour still works.
However, some parts (the console tty, location) have changed and
require attention.

It might well be a security fix, even if this sounds like a moderate
issue yet.
I agree this requires a quick update, but we need to discuss it here
before publicizing ?
