postinstall uses an awk script to obsolete old shlibs. That script
has a variable AllLibs that controls whether old majors are deleted.
Currently that variable cannot be set via postinstall options.
Perhaps postinstall should be taught a new flag and that flag is used
when DESTDIR is cleaned as part of the build?
