It's only a detail, but...
I was thinking that it makes sense to use something other than _ as
the decimal point (p is for point).
This is because in function names you can't use -, so _ becomes the
natural equivalent of space.
Under your suggestion there would be xo1_5_ebook_init() where theres
no consistent meaning of _ (first one represents a decimal point in a
version number, 2nd and 3rd one are word separators).
