The binary-compatibilities strongly depends on the internal implementation.
Because SE-PostgreSQL modifies several data structure like HeapTupleHeader
to store its security attribute, we cannot share *.so files in binary-
compatible.
Therefore, these are deployed on "/usr/lib/sepgsql" in the updated version,
as the previous one.
This manner follows "Library Name Conflicts" in the Conflicts Guidelines.

As you mentioned, when we use any other PL- or contrib modules, these also
have to be built for SE-PostgreSQL. However, these are not duplicate ones.

I want the latest one to be reviewed and be put on the next phase again.
Thanks,
