        For completeness:
        And at the other end of the spectrum; the def*() interfaces not
        be in any shared library, but directly linked from a .a, so no
        conflicts could ever occur.
        Unfortunately the def*() interfaces have escaped from ON
        Consolidation Private.

        Not part of this case:  All of /etc/default is obsolete
        and needs to be converted to service properties.
