Well, the point of declaring it experimental is being able to do at
least slightly incompatible changes and mostly getting away with it.

The changes might not just be needed for portability reasons in the
*current* code, but also for newer features in changed code.  I'm
willing to bet that your SoC project will turn up one or two such
situations.
