That's certainly possible but as it says at the bottom of the wiki page,
sometimes things break and need manual intervention (unless we should
assume -tolerant). Also, it can be nice to keep the abi dumps around so the
one that's "new" this time will become the "old" one when the next version
from upstream.

Thanks,
Richard
