That's what I first thought... but those are variables, and there were
not marked in the header.
At least, those symbols must be alphabetically sorted in version.map.


About checking for experimental mark on variables... I had a patch,
but never got it in.
I think we should instead (forbid such exports and|insist on) rework
API / libraries that rely on public variables.
