Not really. The intention was that the stable ABI wouldn't have any UCS2/UCS4 denotation in the function names, see http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/9186f4a18584/PC/python3.def Functions that explicitly referred to Py_UNICODE were banned from the ABI; functions that were mapped but shouldn't have been mapped were meant to be unmapped. However, it seems that this wasn't properly implemented, see http://bugs.python.org/issue17432 > Regardless, this service already shows we've made some mistakes with > the stable ABI in previous releases - it is indicating there are new > symbols in the stable ABI for 3.3 and 3.4 that aren't properly guarded > with version constraints.

On Windows, the import library has much less additions; anything declared in the header files that is not in python3.def is a bug in the header files (by default).
