And if you bump the major of a library, don't forget, you *really
should*:
* bump the major of any library that depends on it.
* send mail to current-users warning about it, so that if
anybody's build a shared library that depends on it they
can know to do the right thing.
* Note it in the install notes, for people upgrading to
the next release (or, presumably, to -current via binary
snapshots).
