While in general I consider the order part of the ABI, if that's enough to avoid breakage on anything you care about, then just state that. > Right now reg order really matter in binding doc but would be good in these > examples to record that both ways are fine. > Would it be better to describe that both ways are fine? Only if that's what you need.
