It technically could (if they're passing it to a function that takes a "char *"), but if they are and they can't change the affected function to take "const char *" instead, then that's an actual bug in the way they're using it.

So +1 from me for explicitly declaring the immutability in 3.7+ - it will need a note in the What's New porting guide though.
