Should we install libmalloc-extras.so under that name?
Or should it be libmalloc-extras.so.0 (soname) without a
libmalloc-extras.so symbolic link, to discourage new applications from
linking against it, so making it more obvious that this is intended for
backwards compatibility with old applications?
Thanks,
Florian
