I thought about that, and am somewhat torn. You're right in that a
source change is now needed ("add another #include"). But I'm also
thinking, "well... you used something from a header, and didn't
include it. fix the bug in your code."

All of our APIs and ABIs are the same. All that is changed is our
delivery of them to developers.

Thoughts?
