Ada is very similar to C++ in this area: unlike C, it is very hard to have
binary stability because moving from one compiler to another, or from
one compiler version to another may break binary compatibility (note that
this is also now the case with Gtk+, where you cannot e.g compile Gtk+ with
GCC 2.96, and use it with GCC 2.8.1, so this is very similar here), so
I'm afraid that this concept is very C oriented.

I would say that GtkAda is source API stable at this stage.
