cwrappers vs (old)wrappers: status and path forward?
I don't have the energy to work on this at all, but recent discussion
about optional rust reminded me that we are still perhaps partway
through a wrappers transition.
We have wrappers from before, and cwrappers. cwrappers has been default
for a really long time. I wonder then:
- Do people believe that they are totally equivalent functionally?
Or do we have "(old)wrappers is buggy in case X; fixed in
cwrappers"?
- Do people believe that it makes sense to still have the old
wrappers? Are they for bootstrapping? In case of bugs? Not
needed? Something else?
- What do people think would happen if someone set USE_CWRAPPERS=no,
ran into a problem, and reported it? Anything other than being told
they should use cwrappers?
