That's what I was thinking about, the ABI of x86-64 which 
originates from the ones that designed the ISA. The word ABI is 
used or misused in other areas as well, for example libc++abi 
which is a compatibility layer for libc++, that's why the word 
ABI turns up in a discussion about the druntime abstract 
interface.
