I agree with Lev.  That is what I tried to say above as well (that we 
can _take_ it as-is and will need to massage it only slightly), but I 
see now that it can just as easily be read as meaning the opposite (that 
we would need a slightly different format).

So to (try) clarify: I think it is *perfect* usable for Debian that 
upstream code emits "swipl-2-67-792e14f8-de23899e" when asked for its 
ABI.

Sorry for the confusion.

 - Jonas
