If there are applications that use the new api directly, yes, they will be
broken. The fact is that we are really close to the famous sarge freeze,
and if other applications break because of this, they probably won't be
allowed to enter sarge. After Sarge is released we can go and ask all the
applications to update their API (I guess).
