I'm wondering if a libsuch-and-suchX.Y naming policy would have just 
made this an easy thing to deal with.  After re-packaging compat-db and 
doing similar with tcl/tk backports to earlier Redhat flavors, I now 
lean to the side that believes compat-type packages are *not* the way 
to go. Compat packages are tarpits. (wrt a potential transition plan, 
of course.)
