well, they might be opaque, but it would be really good if they would
differ if the ABI differs. So if we change the source code (bugfix,
different flags etc.), we really really want to see a different hash,
in order to detect what other packages need to be rebuilt. Basically
our whole infrastructure relies on these hashes to identify ABIs.
