Manfred,

A variety of things have changed, but nothing comes to mind that would break
a 4.0 map with raster data.  I would encourage you to provide details including
your .map file (preferrably a minimal one demonstrating the problem), and a
gdalinfo report on the file in question.

You should also try and verify the issue with "shp2img", with debugging
turned on.

The most common issue encountered is the file not being found due to apparent
subtle changes in the path-to-file defaults in the software.  Try an absolute
path to your raster file and see if that helps.

Best regards,
