So what? All we need is for it to work on the systems that
(1) have shared libraries and (2) actually use multilibs.
That's ia64-hpux, irix6, sparc64-solaris, and aix4.3.
All except for the last use ELF, and so SONAME is supported.
As for AIX, we could probably hack collect2 to change the
library name as needed, which gets the transparency you want.
In any case, I'll claim that what you're doing right now
for libg2c is wrong based solely on the fact that it's not
what we do for all of the other shared libraries. Please
install libg2c just like the rest of our runtime libraries.
If we come up with a grand scheme to address the multilib
issue, then we'll change all of the runtimes all at once,
and not piecemeal.
