Well, it would have been nice to take the opportunity to separate user-visible 
header files and non-user-visible files.  We could have left the user-visible 
ones in place, for example: diffstat would then show when you were frobbing 
the userspace interface.

But I'm guessing noone wants even more marginal-value churn right now.
