1.2 is fairly old and does not seem maintained by Ubuntu (asked for
backport, and got ignored so far).

Dodji told me that there were new checks added in newer sersions.
I also fear that supporting an old libabigail version will force us to
add a lot of other rules.

In Travis, we currently use libabigail 1.6 (mainly because I did not
update to 1.7 when it was released).
