I don't think discover should be shipping the .so symlink in the udeb,
since udebs aren't used for compiling against. However, it seems fairly
clear that mklibs ought not to be blowing up either. I suggest you file
both against discover (with severity minor) and against mklibs (with
severity important).
The ordering shouldn't be significant. It's slightly curious that it's
different on ARM compared to other platforms, but this isn't a problem
as such.
I'll see about making a patch for mklibs tomorrow.
