No, wait!

The function 'method virtual GiNaC::ex
GiNaC::pointer_to_map_function_1arg<const GiNaC::ex&>::operator()(const
GiNaC::ex&)' removed from the ABI is this template class method
operator() declared in <ginac/ex.h>:

template<class T1>
class pointer_to_map_function_1arg : public map_function {
protected:
    ex (*ptr)(const ex &, T1);
    T1 arg1;
public:
    explicit pointer_to_map_function_1arg(ex x(const ex &, T1), T1 a1) :
ptr(x), arg1(a1) {}
    ex operator()(const ex & e) override { return ptr(e, arg1); } //!!!
};

What happend is that a GiNaC-internal static function has stopped using
a pointer_to_map_function_1arg<const GiNaC::ex&> object.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I suppose that any program/library
linked against GiNaC will have to get its own copy of that method at
compile time. And that makes this *not* an ABI breakage, right?

  -richy.
