thanks
I just ran into this myself with a package containing Apache modules and
spent some time fixing it. Here's a patch that only warns for SONAMEs of
libraries found in /lib, /usr/lib, or /usr/X11R6/lib. This may still miss
some interesting cases, but I think it will catch 95% of the useful cases
that the test should catch with far fewer false positives.
