That seems like a terrible idea, to have to shared libraries in the
distribution with the same soname but different functionality.  Seems
like it would be much better to have a different soname, and have rpm
just use the minimalized version or change from linking against it to
dlopen()ing it (and being able to choose the minimal or regular).
