Unfortunately, if the software vendor is using STL or tools.h++ container
classes, there may be binary incompatibilities when going to A.01.07 runtime.

The problem will occur for classes that are not completely inlined
or if the object is created in a library compiled with the old RW headers
and used in another library compiled with the new RW headers.
