No, this won't work. ELF has no understanding of minor versions.
You'll have to keep track of the ABI numbering. What you don't have
to do is bump the version number for every newly added interface.
This is no problem and should be taken care of using versioning. But
you'll have to bump the number for each and every actual change.
