The benefits of the stable ABI requirement are somewhat unclear to me.
If (as seems ~certain) we are going to have a flag day at some stage,
there is no harm moving this little lot into the sal/ library. To what
degree these helpers randomly change over time is something that can
presumably be quite easily seen from the git log. To me they look rather
sensibly designed & stable from the header [ just hard to find ].
So - I think this splitting code into lots of different places for ABI
reasons can be re-considered.
HTH,
