The regular libtool versioning scheme is only good for C libraries, i.e. where you can exactly tell when an interface has been added, changed or removed. For C++, this is difficult, since you need to take all sorts of compiler characteristics into account. The basic plan is to increment micro if the header file did not change, minor if it changed, but recompiling the app would still work, and major if recompiling wouldn't help either.
