Compatibility with what? As noted, the IDv3 format hasn't changed.
Kernel changes, soname changes, api changes, etc.
The IDv3 format is not the only thing this program needs to be
compatible with.
There are some open bugs, though:

so it seems it's not quite complete.
taglib is probably the best actively-developed modern alternative.
Hmmm... might be worth looking into... if taglib is still being actively
