Undefined in theory, probably false in practice. You shouldn't call methods on the raw interface unless you know it's a valid method.
For the purposes of a dumper who wanted to detect unknown / unexpected fields, that knowledge could all be encapsulated in the implementation of the raw interface. For example, you could have PDBSymbol::dump() which calls RawSymbol->dump(), and that particular implementation can go to the native API instead of calling the friendly accessors.
