Uhm, really? There seem to be nothing wrong. Given that this is the first
version is normal to have 0.0.0 as interface numbers, it's just how libtool
is supposed to work [0]: "Never try to set the interface numbers so that
they correspond to the release number of your package".
Anyway, why not call the source package czmq instead of libczmq? That seems
the name used by upstream.

I would like to help if you need so (e.g. co-maintaining the package). I've
done a quick and dirty initial try to package this, and it doesn't seem
that hard. Please let me know.
Cheers
