Is the concern that moving them to a header makes them part of the API?

In other words, does replacing

   PyObject *
   PyFile_FromString(char *name, char *mode)
   {
        extern int fclose(FILE *);
   ...
   }

with

   #include <stdio.h>

mean that the <stdio.h> needs to be included from then on, even if
PyFile_FromString stops relying upon it?
