I don't know where this stands but I would recommend just issuing
another update that fixes those methods that are broken instead of
redoing the entire condenseSources process.

Not sure what you mean by that.

The only consequence is that packages who need it will have to ensure
that the FFI is loaded first. If there are any other issues I'm unaware
of them.

Not sure what these limitations are - one of the reasons for making a
new sources file was precisely to address some of these issues before
they become a problem.

It seems to me that there may be a problem in condenseSources but since
we can simply reissue an updated with the methods in question fixed,
this is by no means a show-stopper.
