   Abstracting -- should that really be done in a stable series?

to answer this, first see $workbook/build/stability.text, choose some
attributes (or make up your own), and characterize this "abstracting"
change in those terms.  consider other changes that might have similar
term sets and how you feel about them.  tell everyone how you render
your decision if so inclined -- you be the judge!

   Compatibility header -- huh?

i don't understand this question.

   Back-ports -- perhaps, but only if 1.6 is too far away

how far away is it?  how far is too far?
