That said, ORC is a relatively new API that may be in flux and the C API
does come with a rather strong (I forget if we've clarified this & made
different guarantees) guarantee of backwards compatibility, so it might not
be appropriate to expose such a detailed API especially for a
new/experimental piece of code - not sure.
