Changelog says:

Iterator protocol support implemented for all container types. Warning,
warning, warning: this change may potentially affect backward
compatibility when:

 - user class overrides __getitem__() without overriding __iter__()

 - when user code iterates over SEQUENCE object to get its components
   (now keys will be yielded)

No other mention of breaking compatibility. I would say, it shouldn't.
