This should be fixed in the patch below, which I have pushed now.

Well, I'm punting, and just removing that hypothesis and test from the
test group now. It is certainly not portable; the manual should be
adjusted to reflect this.
In the patch below, I've also lowered the used version numbers a bit,
for they will cause exceedingly long command lines on OSF and IRIX, with
their complicated versioning scheme. This should be fixed as well
properly in the ltmain code somehow, but I have no idea yet how.
Cheers,
Ralf
Add versioning tests.
* tests/versioning.at (versioning): New file, new test.
* Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Adjust.
