Well, I'm thinking of a way to automate these checks, hence my question.

So, as I understand it, there's an _incompatible_ API change (and thus
requiring a SONAME change) when:

* function prototypes (incl names) that are exported are changed or obsoleted
* structs change or are obsoleted

I think I can see a way to check for both cases, given the old and new
library and header file...  I'll keep you posted.
