Mike, Zack,

Could one of you please update "Packaging Changes" for 2.23 to indicate
exactly what happens if you use the header and how distributions should
change their packages? The more detail the better, but if all we can say
is "You need to from this API to that API," that's fine also. Some record
of this requirement is important.

Cheers,
Carlos.
