Title:
  Introduce ABI compatibility check

Status in Zorba - The XQuery Processor:
  New

Bug description:
  Going forward in 2.x releases, we need to ensure backwards
  compatibility at both the source and binary levels. There are certain
  API changes that would be backwards-compatible if clients recompiled
  their code, but would not allow simply re-linking against a later
  release; we need to avoid those changes.

  One possibility would be an "ABI checker" as part of the remote queue
  run; I seem to recall seeing such software, somewhere...
