Abstraction as you seem to use it requires complete docs of the interface.
Which is what you said you don't have... So the original abstractor broke
the abstraction when publishing insufficient docs, not the one who looks
into the sources to find out what actually happens. 

(This independently of the merits of abstraction.)
