Mostly looks as good as it gets (who would say C makes error handling

discretion.

I'd use "unsigned int", but matter of style.

Do we care about documenting at which versions the new functions have
been introduced? Doxygen supports @since.

I think doxygen can do some hyperlinking here if you use the proper
function name(s). On output formats we don't use, but anyway...
