I think API changes happen all the time. At Google, we are integrating upstream 
LLVM and Clang changes into our internal codebase daily. We have a lot of 
internal ClangTidy checkers. Fixing up all our internal code to keep with 
upstream changes is a full time job for one engineer (but it is a rotation).

I'll think about more stuff to fix.
