Grr, I did paste the wrong content of t1.c and t2.c in my last message sorry.

Here are the correct ones:

$ cat t1.c
struct s1;
struct s2 {
	int i;
};
struct s3 {
	struct s1 *ptr1;
	struct s2 *ptr2;
};

void foo(struct s3* s __attribute__((unused)))
{
}

$ cat t2.c
struct s1 {
	int j;
};
struct s2;
struct s3 {
	struct s1 *ptr1;
	struct s2 *ptr2;
};

void foo(struct s3* s __attribute__((unused)))
{
}

$ gcc -g -c t1.c
$ gcc -g -c t2.c
$ abidiff t1.o t2.o
$ 

The rest of my previous message still applies :-)
