I think the general (Redhat-based) scheme is to put the version after 
the <library>.so.# and symbolically link the <library>.so to that file, 
e.g.:
libganglia.so.0-3.1.0
libganglia.so -> libganglia.so.0-3.1.0

That current SONAME would mean you have to link with -lganglia-3.1.0 
which is pretty unusual for user-code.
