I assume there different versions of exec library, unless its due different CPU types. It be nice, if kept exec version the same on all hardware, but I guess older hardware, does have latest library, the ExMem functions is probably not present in interface, on the older versions.

So probably not due to poorly written code, but more likely due lack of checking of availability poor documentation and examples. As almost always.

In any case, an API that does not assume possibility of failure, be horrible, if that was the case.

Should be as easy as a IF, of course we need know version it’s not available

if ((ExecBase -> lib_Version >= a)&&(ExecBase -> lib_Revision >= b))
{
}

All Pegasos2 parts of AmigaOS are more or less untested since next to no OS4 developers and beta-testers had that hardware.

@LiveForIt
Checking the exec.library version doesn't help at all, it's the same in all kernel versions for the different systems.

Pegasos 2 Warning
The extended memory feature currently does not work on the Pegasos II platform. Programmers are still encouraged to use ExtMem but may need to add an exception for the Pegasos II platform. Use IExpansion->GetMachineInfo() to verify which platform your code is executing on.

Maybe no active os4 developers have (or more precice use for work) pegasos2 hardware, but at least me and 2 other active betatesters have pegasos2 for sure. But taken into account active users and devs at all, saying like you say that there no betatesters with pegasos2 is not true, for sure
