I am not convinced that it is right to make something with so vague
semantics a part of libpci API.

The procfs back-end is a pretty weak motivation, because it's long obsolete
and basically I haven't dropped it yet only because it takes more effort
than letting it stay :-)

Now, the win32 back-end could be intersting, but let's make it mergeable
in its basic form first.
