+This patch looks OK, and it makes sense independent of what else\r
+follows with respect to notmuch-insert.\r
+\r
+With respect so SONAME bumping, we might be able to get away with out it\r
+here (although that could be un-portable or broken in a way I haven't\r
+seen yet), but we can also delay that decision until closer to the next\r
+release; I don't think it's as important to provide a stable ABI for\r
+people building from git, and I'd prefer to batch ABI changes into one\r
+SONAME bump.\r
