I think that's a good idea; I don't think that at this point we've made
any plugin compatibility guarantees. (In the future, I think we should
-- but only when we have a much more structured plug-in API.)

"extern int foo" is not something that is going to be covered by
copyright; there's no expression in something like that. I don't think
anybody should be worried.
