Where would I find documentation on the above file, and how to use it?

I would assume "global" is for symbols that need exporting, but "local"
is for symbols that should not get exported, and "SASL2_1.7" is the
namespace to add to all symbols?

If I got this correct, how often should the namespace be updated? Once
for every new upstream release?
