I'm a little confused still.  Can you spell this out in more detail
for me?  I think I'm just lacking the understanding.

Maybe I can't tell which ABI it's built for, but why exactly do I need
to know?  (I can't tell which version of GCC a given library was built
with either, but that doesn't matter.)  So what exactly are the sorts
of failure cases we are worried about?
