But not software testing. If you hide information it makes software difficult
to test as the testable areas become less obvious. If you hide interfaces
behind layers of includes what ends up happening is the first API only gets
tested. This is the principal behind flattening: You are able to test all
functions at every layer from the 'top down' or 'bottom up'.
It makes no sense to make the complete RTEMS implementation visible to
<rtems.h>. If you want to unit test a certain low level interface, then
simply include the corresponding internal header file (e.g.
<rtems/score/threadimpl.h>.
