I don't think you do either, which is part of why I said that I think when
this has come up it's been handled quite well.  I think historically most
things have been done using #ifdefs and that that's been changing as there
have been more (and more disparate) ports, which turn out to require a
variety of methods depending on the circumstances.

Perhaps the only complaint I can think of here is that sometimes the fear of
vtables seems (to me) to border on paranoia -- it doesn't hurt if the class
in question is completely off the critical path.  But I think that's a
pretty minor quibble.
