I don't understand the consequencies of this statement. Can you be
more specific ?
If someone whants libvlc snapshot taken events on his/her application
he should make sure that have libvlc 0.9.8 for example. Or if you mean
the opposite (someone has the new version but does not handle libvlc
snapshot taken events) then you could move
libvlc_MediaPlayerSnapshotTaken declaretion to the end of event_type_t
as well as the EVENT(libvlc_MediaPlayerSnapshotTaken) ..

And what? Should libvlc never change again ??
