Won't work - the linker looks for libXX.so and won't find
libXX.so.n. If you create a symbolic link
libXX.so --> libXX.so.n, you can link, but the executable will
depend on libXX.so and not on libXX.so.n.
Moreover, you cannot link statically any more because in a
static link only libXX.a files will be searched...

Same problem.
