Ahh, right, thanks!

Oh, right. That makes sense.

Yeah.
OK, I'll wait for the dust to settle on our 15 release and then
back-patch this. Then I'll keep working on the opaque pointer support
for master, which LLVM 16 will need (I expect we'll eventually want to
back-patch that eventually, but first things first...).
