Non-transition is safe and desirable if all the C++ libraries it depends on use
versioned symbols.  libstdc++ does, and apparently that's the only one libaspell
depends on.  So indeed no transition is necessary or desirable for libaspell.

(If a C++-written library exporting only a C interface depended on a C++ 
library which
had unversioned symbols (whew!), then a transition might be neccesary, but I'm 
not
sure; if that case ever comes up, it's worth extra analysis.)
