Good question.  libtool has machinery to track this stuff.  My
aforementioned patch uses libtool's "-version-info 0" and
"-version-info 1".  How does libtool handle -version-info on Windows?

*Nod*.  So, more or less table the issue until apr2 gets to a point
where it's being shipped to end users and apr1 is not.  I have no idea
when that's expected to happen, but presumably it's not a concern for
1.7.x.
