That's the standard way of doing things in C functions (ie, rely on
STRICT markings) and I see nothing wrong with it. If you were using an
upgrade process that failed to incorporate version-to-version changes in
the definitions of contrib functions, this is hardly going to be the
only problem you encounter.
