Oh, my bad. I looked it up in POSIX and removed the second = somewhere

Yes, but that means that version 10 comes before version 9. Only I didn't
wish to rely on the convention that the last part of the file name has to
be a version number. For instance with dietlibc that would be an improper
thought (dietlibc _does_ have a SONAME, only it equals the file name. Oh
my, I'll have to fix the script. Update follows.)
