I'd favor this if you can emit aliases with the old names wherever this

I suppose if we unconditionally use the new mangling and emit a weak
alias with the old mangling, old external references will resolve to
somthing, so code that only uses one vector size will continue to work;
Really? How'd you create code with the new compiler and older libraries
which only provide definitions for the old names?
If I'm not missing anything then using a 2.1 ABI version makes sense
since it is upward compatible, other than other ABI breakages.
