My understanding is that binary compatibility is explicitly disclaimed for 
experimental libs. Of course, there's still the argument that such a break 
should only occur across new feature releases, not bugfix releases. I'm not 
sure if that case is accounted for in whatever we published when we came up 
with kdelibs/experimental

Either way I believe the end result should still be binary compatible if you 
replace kdelibs 4.7.1 with kactivities+kdelibs 4.7.2, no?
