Seems like a reasonable approach. If somebody wanted to call that
from outside, I'd personally feel they were getting way too friendly
with the implementation.

I was thinking about the stuff like SH_ITERATE, which you might or
might not have use for in any particular file. In the case at hand
here, a file that doesn't call SH_INSERT would be at risk of getting
unused-function complaints about SH_GROW. But as you say, if we do
find that happening, __attribute__((unused)) would probably be
enough to silence it.
