Stable Sorcery 1.13.4 has been released. This is mostly a bugfix 
release. A few notable features have been added however. Support for
a new 'libcompat' grimoire file was added, and a feature for forcing
recompilation of dependent spells was added (force_depends).

libcompat is placed in the grimoire or a section and is loaded in all 
spell environments, this helps with api transitions. force_depends 
(although not a trigger) works similar to up_triggers, but from the
opposite perspective; the parent spell can force things it depends on
to recompile.

Here is the ChangeLog:
