the minor number should be bumped any time a symbol is added to a
library.

the major number should be bumped any time a symbols is removed
from or an ABI changed in a library.


this is pretty much all there is to the rules, and they're not
limited by other implementation issues.  ie, each time you commit
a new function bump the minor.

hope this helps.


.mrg.

ps. don't forgot to look at the sparc64/amd64/mips64 compat libs
when bumping shlib versions.
