Yes, it's very, very different on OS X. OS X uses "Mach-O" format
rather than ELF, and spells ".so" as ".dylib", plus it reverses the order of
the version number and the file type suffix:
libcurl.so.4 => libcurl.4.dylib
Mach-O also uses a "compatibility version" that is distinct from the version
that appears in the filename. :-/
