As I said in the other email. Could you please show me the dump? I'll try
to reprodyce this.

Is it really a problem? If so I'll revert it, but also the bindir argument
is a subject to be gone soon...

Well, we have libtool doing some magic in common/Makefile:
LIBTOOL_VER = -version-info $(MAJOR_NUMBER):$(MINOR_NUMBER):0
LIBTOOL_RPATH=-rpath $(libdir)

Isn't it enough? But yes, adding GNOKII_VERSION (or rather
LIBGNOKII_VERSION is not a problem.
