I can see it now -- sup, rebuild, sup, rebuild, sup, rebuild... and
seventeen different versions of the same shared library.  Just exactly
what is safe and what is not safe to remove as far as shared library
versions?  If I build my system against a 0.0 version, then later
against a 1.1, and have a 0.0, 0.1, 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 (theoretically),
which can safely be removed, and which shouldn't be (even if it might
be safe)?

Just trying to get a feel for how dynamic the linking really is, and
what I can get off my disk to make more space.
