Question about a JChem Cartridge function

We upgraded our JChem Cartridge installation from version 5.2.6 to version 5.5 and found that the JCF_COMPAREB function no longer exists. Has there been any change that would cause this function to disappear?

The JCF package was introduced in JChem version 3.2.5 to replace the
stand-alone JCF_XXXX functions (including JCF_COMPAREB). The parameters
and semantics of any JCF.XXXX function is identical to its JCF_XXXX
counterpart -- the only difference being that the package takes
advantage of the ability to override function parameters thus obviating
the need for function name variants to denote different signatures (the
main motivation behind the replacement). For example: only JCF.COMPARE
exists with multiple signatures including the signature of the late
JCF_COMPAREB function. The stand-alone JCF_XXXX functions were removed
in JChem 5.3 .
