I am fine with recompilation. My question is more related to same functional behavior between versions (say from 1.0.2a to 1.0.2b ..... 1.0.2p) unless it is related to some security fix which breaks the old behavior.

If one breaks backward (ABI) compatibility for a security bug fix, then
the old code needs to be recompiled, so you can't fix the bug with an update to
the .so.
