It is not clear to me that I need a separate abi-versions.h file, the
tests are already including shlib-compat.h and that includes the
existing abi-versions.h. Â Here is a patch that I have created and
tested, if the approach seems reasonable I can submit it in a seperate
thread with a ChangeLog file. Â Basically, I created a TEST_COMPAT macro
that is almost identical to SHLIB_COMPAT and then I used that to ifdef
the test.  I put the macro in shlib-compat.h, maybe it should be in a
different or new header file but I liked having it there so that it was
near SHLIB_COMPAT which it is based on. Â Testing on aarch64 looked good
for both ILP32 and LP64 with ILP32 doing the dummy do_test and LP64
running the original do_test.
