Hello,

Well, it does not build a lot of trust in the maintainance of the shared
library if a change which breaks both API and ABI ends up in a stable
release and a bugreport does not get any response.

I can understand Jeremy's reluctance here.

Please note that this is not completely fixable on exim's side, a exim
binary built against OpenDMARC 1.3 will (probably) crash when OpenDMARC
is upgraded to 1.4 without rebuilding all reverse dependencies.
