Why can't you just describe the extensions yourself?

Shipping something undocumented is just pointless. And even if there's
a specification somewhere users typically need a end user oriented
manual too, which a specification is not.

On the other hand documenting the ABI like you currently do 
doesn't seem very interesting to me, I don't know who ever would
need that. If someone wants to implement their own STM they
can as well read the spec themselves or read some header files.
