I foresee some small changes based on the experience creating a third
implementation.

Right.

I can imagine tweaking the internals to generate threadsafe code (not
previously a problem since compilers didn't generate threaded code)
and the ffi distinguishes three levels of 'safety' whereas greencard
only distinguishes two so there'll be a change there too.

[btw The other ffi frontends are worth looking at too but I don't know
them as well.]
