That would be the natural choice in my opinion unless someone already
uses it for something in a private tree or branch and did not mention it
so far, but plans to submit their code. I think we shouldn't be causing
hassle to anyone unnecessarily. Do we have a place (other than the
relevant pieces of source code) we use to document our (GNU) ABI
conventions?
