Within a major version, yes, that's the idea.

Application Binary Interface.  That is, a program using a dynamic or 
shared library version of MySQL++ has expectations such as object layout 
that must be preserved within a major version.  Essentially, we're 
promising not to break the ABI until v3.x.

I anticipate only 2 right now, both of which I mentioned in my previous 
message.

No, it doesn't help, because Lockable is used as a base class.  If its 
object layout changes, the ABI of classes derived from it also change.
