We have similar cases in other drivers and it doesn't cause any known
problems because (I think) build-bots are aware of this detail. Hence
there is no real need to be overreactive here and in this particular
case it's better to react to real problems once they show up (we already
did that by fixing build breakage caused by a CLK API problem found by
bot in v3). Does it sound like a good argument to you? ACK?
