I was thinking of scenarios where we fix this in the future. I expect
most GLPK problems will lead to crashes and will be easy to find,
while minisat will continue working so a reminder seemed appropriate.

My plan is to link with the library that provides a C interface.
However, when I looked at it a few months ago, the semantics of the
interface looked a bit different to those of the current code so this
was not so easy to test quickly.
