It may not be so straightforward. In the case of a new version of 
libUrl (>= 1.1) with an old engine (< 2.6.1) I think a script error 
will pop up as soon as the engine tries to run/compile the script. I 
haven't checked out the details yet, but doesn't the engine start 
compiling scripts as soon as a stack is loaded?
