I'd actually set both the soname and the fully-versioned name to
libfoo.so.0.1, then if you change something binary-incompatibly,
libfoo.so.0.2, etc. (or use libfoo.so.0.1 etc. as the soname and something
like libfoo.so.0.1.0.0 as the fully-versioned name, if you really want to
track binary-compatible changes too). Unlike libtool, CMake easily allows
you to use such versioning, and it's really the right way to handle it. It
allows both clearly identifying the library as preliminary (whereas
libfoo.so.0 is also very commonly used for the first stable-ABI version of a
library) and tracking binary incompatible changes in a sane way (without
losing the zero major version).
