Maybe it would be cleaner to bump the SONAME. Although I think you are
right that there are no real users. [dis]asm_begin () take an Ebl *

I will, after the 0.161 release (tomorrow). But could you use git -s to
add a Signed-off-by: line as described in the CONTRIBUTING file.
And feel free to just include the ChangeLog entries directly if that is
more convenient for you.
