Decorate only the shared library names with the python versions, and retain
the current names for the .a files and .so symlinks - with two separate -dev
packages that conflict with one another?
That still prevents anyone from packaging an extension that builds for both
python2.4 and python2.5 at once using Boost.Python, but I think it solves
all the other drawbacks of the other solutions you suggested.
