At present the xts API has publically available interfaces to the following functions (as defined in `xtsAPI.h`:

    Callable from other R packages:
      SEXP xtsIsOrdered(SEXP x, SEXP increasing, SEXP strictly)
      SEXP xtsNaCheck(SEXP x, SEXP check)
      SEXP xtsTry(SEXP x)
      SEXP xtsRbind(SEXP x, SEXP y, SEXP dup)
      SEXP xtsCoredata(SEXP x)
      SEXP xtsLag(SEXP x, SEXP k, SEXP pad)

    Internal use functions:
      int isXts(SEXP x)
      void copy_xtsAttributes(SEXP x, SEXP y)
      void copy_xtsCoreAttributes(SEXP x, SEXP y)

    Internal use macros:
      xts_ATTRIB(x)
      xts_COREATTRIB(x)
      GET_xtsIndex(x)
      SET_xtsIndex(x,value)
      GET_xtsIndexClass(x)
      SET_xtsIndexClass(x,value)
      GET_xtsIndexFormat(x)
      SET_xtsIndexFormat(x,value)
      GET_xtsCLASS(x)
      SET_xtsCLASS(x,value)

    Internal use SYMBOLS:
      xts_IndexSymbol
      xts_ClassSymbol
      xts_IndexFormatSymbol
      xts_IndexClassSymbol

    Callable from R:
      SEXP mergeXts(SEXP args)
      SEXP rbindXts(SEXP args)
      SEXP tryXts(SEXP x)
