and sure enough, that's what gets used too. So what goes?

You are confusing the naming convention for shared libraries that are intended to be linked into programs (or other libraries) at build time, which normally have to be named libsomething.so because that is what the compiler/linker flag -lsomething resolves to, with the naming convention for shared libraries that are intended to be loaded at run-time (sometimes called plug-ins), which require no particular naming.

In that case, I'd appreciate some advice on how to use the pgxs package to compile a 'plug-in'. Looks to me it's only designed to compile 'shared libraries'.
