Hard to say. Our experience with the standard contrib modules is that it really isn't much additional trouble; but perhaps more-complex modules would have more interdependencies between functions. In any case, I fail to see the need for basing things on a catalog lookup rather than embedding API version numbers in relevant C symbols.
How can you check it? There is not any callback now.
