Some additional notes for package maintainers:

• In the new version of the library, the public symbols are the only ones to be exported in the binaries, as it should, while in the older version the private symbols were just excluded from the headers. This shouldn't be of any concern most of the times, as it doesn't really break ABI compatibility.
• The versioning scheme has changed: no “revision number” will be used any more for tar files, micro version will be incremented instead.
