Please add support for ELF symbol versioning, so that the usual namespace problems can be avoided. I notice from <http://josefsson.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/shishi/README?rev=1.30&view=markup> that this lib is distributed under the terms of the GPL only, so I have my doubts that it's particularly useful for Debian to adopt it.
