You will certainly have some API gaps to fill. Some will be very obvious (as 
you will just hit undefined functions) some will be more disturbing as 
functions may act differently. All in all it should be doable. Yet with a 
certain amount of work.

That said, I don't see the point. RELENG_4 is past now, hail to RELENG_5 :-)
