I see. But what if there are 2 versions of the same library
on the same compatibility level, coming from different vendors?
Vendor A uses the os abi tag (setting it to 2.4.20, which was
+8 years ago), and vendor B doesn't care about ancient systems
and doesn't set this tag.

Obviously there is something wrong. As a consumer, how can I
fix this and get the library I want? (I know "strip", but that
would be cheating.)
