Ugh.  Sorry.  Luckily there are still quite a lot of numbers left
before we run out.

I propose that to avoid this problem with future releases, that
whoever commits a change that *does* affect LTDL_VERSION_INFO notes
it in NEWS so that I don't make another mistake when I'm searching
back up ChangeLog from the previous release commit to find things
that affect the API versioning.

If you agree, I'll add a note to HACKING.

Cheers,
