This is not the guide that tells you "these are the stable interfaces in
GNOME per Sun's terminology".

This is the guide that tells you "if you want to write a GNOME app and
want to do $foo, then you use libbar to do it".  The guide may very well
tell you that libbar is not particularly stable ABI-wise, but at least
you'll know what you can use.
