Let's hear what Christian thinks about it.
Sorry I wasn't following the discussion. There is a chapter in the
libtool manual about why versioning (aka the -2 suffix) is beneficial
(http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Versioning.html#Versioning).
There is a discussion way back in the archives about library versioning
on windows and how this affects how the Python bindings find the
library. I think Jamie has a strong opinion about this.
I have no preference for either solution on windows as long as *nix
still use normal library versioning.
So please check with Jamie on the rationale behind this.
Thanks
Christian
