Interestingly, according to the schematics and the pin layouts, they
should not be completely interchangeable.
In the old board schematics pin 4 on the plug is not connected,
while pin 5 is +5V. In the new board schematics both pin 4 and pin 5
are +5V.
The old-style power supply has pin 4, but no pin 5 - it should actually
not work at all with an old-style board, but does here...
The new, brick-style power supply has pin 5, but no pin 4, but should
work with a new board anyway.
I didn't try to swap them yet, though.
