The map file will have two sections now, one for public symbols that will continue to use the 1.3/1.4/etc system (Ah, Yishai forgot to update CMakeLists when he added the 1.4 symbols, oops, we need a travis check for this I guess..) The other is the private symbol section that basically just tracks the release number. There will only ever be one PRIVATE section since we don't provide compat. We do not attempt to reflect the PRIVATE symbols in the filename. The file name will continue to be 1.3.${PACKAGE_VERSION} but it is largely irrelevant..
