 Currently the SO files can be versioned - like in libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.
 However GHC provides no support for such versioning which may cause
 problems if the ABI of library will change.

 Also it does not provide any support for ldscripts and fails if it seeks
 for libz.so and only found is ldscript.
