Thanks Jeremy...

My usage for versioned symbols would be to have multiple shared 
libraries implementing the same entrypoints...

For dlopen'ed libraries, I suppose there is no problem with unversioned 
symbols, correct?

But I want a kind of Windows DLL semantics... If my app dynamic loads 
lib1 and lib2, that implements the same functions and latter it loads 
lib3, a different library linked against lib2 (-l2).

I want that calls from lib3 always go to lib2. Are versioned symbols the 
only way to achieve that or there is another way?

Thanks,


Adriano
