A more controversial possibility is to add an *option* to correct the

how pervasive this problem is.  One possibility: do the ABI-warning
patch, ask our friends at Red Hat, Debian, and FreeBSD to build their
whole distributions+ports with it and see how many warnings we get.  If

This is what we at Red Hat are about to do today.

I was going to work on patches to do this; are you actually already working
on them?  If so, I'd prefer not to duplicate your work.

Thanks,
