Yeah, this is a good point.  It's tough though, because in some Linux
distributions, the user may not have a plain ".so" without a version
unless he installs the *-dev package.  Coming from the viewpoint of
someone who might want to ship applications that used such a binding,
and doesn't want his users to need development packages installed, I'm
not sure what the best way to do this would be, other than list all
the versions the library has been tested with.
