But how about the run-time linker? This would mean one has to mess
with LD_LIBRARY_PATH or /etc/ld.so.conf (on GNU/Linux). Furthermore it
makes no sense IMO to have versioned libraries in a subdir (like
libguile.so.12 in the example above). Note also that the srfi libs are
versioned, at least on my system.
