I wouldn't make these optional, just call the functions
unconditionally and fail the probe function if they are
not available.

I'm not sure if it's worth keeping these functions in a
common file. You are adding complexity this way and I don't
think you are even saving a significant number of code lines
compared to just having two copies of them.

If you want to keep them, it would be best to make
