I think if we add a new function to the exported interface, then we
must rev the BC ABI version that we claim to be generating.  The
reason for this is that the gcj with this patch will generate code
which won't work with an earlier libgcj.  So, I think we must increase
the revision.

(I suppose the counter argument is that such objects will simply fail
to link.. ?)
