Should I revert this on trunk (would be a bit awkward/more churny for users - maybe not a full revert, but one that leaves the new ABI version flag available as a no-op so users opting out don't need to remove the flag only to add it back in later) so it can be integrated to the release?

Yep, that's the one!

Yeah, I'm leaning towards not reverting on main & hoping we can sort out the POD ABI issue.
