That's for 34.11, so it would not be too hard to update, but it would still be a pain.

The best place to start is by looking at "<df>/file_changes.txt", then comparing similar raws from 34.11 vs the current version.

Ah, 34.11...  Those were the days.  I think v40 had just come out when I started playing DF, so I originally downloaded 34.11 to get the LNP and most stable experience for my first time.  I remember a few radical sieges before upgrading. 

Anyways, you can also use DiffChecker https://www.diffchecker.com/ to find out what has changed between versions. 

Comparing v34 dwarfs with v43 dwarfs, I see that STRANGE_MOODS tag was added.  Dwarves changed from HUMANOID to HUMANOID_NECK.  Sweat, tears and spit were added.  ATTACK_PREPARE_AND_RECOVER and ATTACK_FLAG_BAD_MULTIATTACK were added.  Looks like gaits are different.  Personalities are different.  Oh right, males are geldable now.  Eyelashes are attached to eyelids instead of the head.
