Hi Berin,
For the ELF platforms (linux, solaris, HP), we should definitely do this.
AIX is slightly different, but we'll just have to accomodate it in the
Makefile.
This should be a high priority for 1.5.x, if we do a point release, or 1.6
if we don't.

We probably should be using -soname on linux to
embed the full name into the library. It's
cleaner and a bit more standard.
In the debian distribution I've renamed
the library to libxalan-c.so.14.0 and use -soname
to embed this name into libxalan-c.so so that
when you link a program against the .so, ld.so
will always run it against the full version name.
That's Debian rules, but it's also the cleanest
way to manage dynamic libraries under linux.
Cheers,
Berin
