Good point. So we should be sure to link statically to the library.

Of course if the system updates to a new Vim we could still have the

It sounds like once the encryption is finished we should add a reference
version encrypted file to the tests, and test that vim can decrypt it. Then
the test will fail if a library update breaks the decryption.
