My impression is that there is a single version number that is put
into the library's name.  For instance, in cvs we currently see
`libswt-gtk-2131.so' and `libswt-pi-gtk-2131.so'.  This number is
updated from time to time (presumably in response to API changes) and
the Java code explicitly loads a library with a number in its name.
