Because vtable layout is but just a tiny portion of the ABI.  One major area
that will end up being different is exception handling.  The EH mechanisms
differ by OS, by cpu, and by wordsize.  For example, the win32 eh mechanism is
_signifigantly_ different from the win64 mechanism.  For some details, see this
talk:  http://www.nwcpp.org/Meetings/2006/10.html

Those parts of the document are still blank, obviously, but at some point they
will be I hope/expect.
