Yes, I think we will have to use some API docs in safety related
documentation. But I do not see any issue with that because using
"description" part of headers in documentation can be treated as "fair
use" and thus will not create a license conflict as confirmed in 
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html#SourceCodeInDocumentation
