Following recent discussions about the ABI differences between 5.1 and 5.2, and the need to recompile C modules, I've hacked together a little project called twoface.

twoface is a DLL which consumes the 5.2 ABI and presents a 5.1 style ABI, thereby allowing a 5.2 program to load most 5.1 C libraries without the need for any recompilation.
