take care that we need a SONAME transition for 0.7 final ... so not as
trivial as it seems. If you see crashes after this, its mostlikely
because some apps/libs have not been recompiled/upgraded.

I plan to look into a real backport of 0.7.1 once that is out
... upstream did the required SONAME bump there.
