libtool .la archives - name collision?

[dichro-f88de800@eris.rcpt.to (Mikolaj J. Habryn)]

  Hmm - it strikes me that there may be a potential problem with
including .la archives with library packages. The filename for the
libtool file is independent of the version number of the library. ie,
libfish2 will ship with a libfish.la, and so will libfish3. This might 
be an obstacle to installing multiple versions of the same library,
might it not?
