However, it depends of what ABI guarantee you're talking about.</div><div><br></div><div>1. The ABI stability of the shared objects is always (and has always been, and will most likely always) be guaranteed. The only way to change that is to explicitly use the _LIBCPP_ABI_UNSTABLE macro, which says "use all the ABI breaking features". This obviously only works if you're also linking against a library that was built to provide that ABI. This ability to use the unstable ABI has been provided for a long time, it wasn't the default, and it still isn't the default -- my change is completely orthogonal to that.</div><div><br></div><div>2. The "ABI stability" of static archives is a different matter. The question here is whether you can link programs against static archives built with different versions of libc++. The answer used to be YES by default, not it is NO by default. If you want to retain that ability, you need to use the `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU` macro. And also please give us a heads up so we know someone is using it.</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>In general I'm worried of "undefined behavior" that isn't caught by a tool, ideally at build time otherwise at runtime.
