Timescale at least has many users, I don't know about the others. But
they won't be happy if we let things be. IMO we should rewrap ...
especially 12, since there won't be a next one.
ISTM that we have spare bytes where we could place that boolean without
breaking ABI. In x86_64 there's a couple of 4-byte holes, but those
won't be there on x86, so not great candidates. Fortunately there are
3-byte and 7-byte holes also, which we can use safely. We can move the
new boolean to those location.
The holes are different in each branch unfortunately.
