So I'm going to soon merge the switchbrew data importer, giving us names for a loooot of so-far-unnamed functions. This brings a problem though: those names may or may not be made up, and are not guaranteed to stay the same.
Thus, anyone relying on switchbrew might have the function name swapped from under them. This kinda sucks.
I expect that, for the most part, this won't matter too much, as the most commonly used interfaces should be relatively stable (thinking about FS, bsd, SM, etc...). But for more niche interfaces, those name changes might become a bit problematic.
It might be worth it to have a travis hook that checks for name changes and alerts us when this happens.
