  I'm a versioning afficianado, but I recommend that it not be used
in *production* unless a workaround is in place to get the same
results for non-gnu linkers.
  The libfoo.so.2 approach would probably suffice, so I reccomend
it for production versions of Samba until we have gnu linkers for
pretty much everything.
