Normally upgrading from Magento 1.0.19870 to 1.3.1 should be no problem, as Magento takes care of all the required table changes. I mostly faced script timeouts on the server in the past, which broke the upgrade process and turned the installation unusable.
I have switched to upgrading customer databases on a local installation, as that allows me to workaround timeouts and prepare databases for the upgrade.
Before upgrading an installation, you should also delete any content that can be recreated by Magento again. Logs, price rule caches …. can all be deleted, as the system can generate those again.
Really sad how everyone needs to piece those things together, as the Magento Community Knowledge Base is mostly outdated and many hints are buried deep inside the forums.
Currently working my way through a huge Magento 1.0.19870 database and will comment on my success once everything works.

I am a full-stack developer. My expertise include:
I love programming, design and know my way around server architecture as well. I would never feel complete, with one of these missing.
I have a broad range of interests, that’s why I constantly dive into new technologies and expand my knowledge where ever required. Technologies are evolving fast and I enjoy using the latest.
Apart from that, I am a peace loving guy who tries to have people around him that think the same. I truly believe in the principle: “If you help someone, someone will help you, when you need it."
