The problem is that new libFOO.so.N have references to
__std{in,out,err}, instantly breaking all old binaries on the system.

Eg, libcam.so.2 used to have __sF, which as defined in libc.so.[345].
However, after the bump to lib.so.5.XXXXXXX and rebuild the world,
libcam.so.2 now references __std*.  For apps that were linked before
against libc.so.[345], this causes undefined symbols at runtime.

Repeat for many other libraries than libcam.
