Yes, the linker notices it when it runs. :-)
Existing programs continue to use existing libraries according to ELF
versioning rules.
Programs linked after the newer library is installed will use the
newer library.
Which is all very nice, but does it also work on non-ELF systems such
as Darwin/MacOS X?
