Check out the "what's new" section of the Programming Guides. There actually have been several changes (improvements) along the way.
HOWEVER, even with the latest compiler TRUNC(BIN) should be you "option of LAST resort". Remember that you can use COMP-5 with TRUNC(OPT) to insure that specific fields don't get truncated.
