I might be missing something here: The only thing we see by compiletime is headerfiles. At runtime we try dlopen a library what we hope corresponce to the headerfiles. There is no garantee that it is. I was under the impression (from reading ncurses docs/faq) that compatibility has prime focus. Even .so.4 is binary compatible with .so.5 if I have read it correct.
