You could try looking at the code, searching the mailing list archives,
google, etc..

~        if test $supports_anon_versioning = yes; then
~          _LT_AC_TAGVAR(archive_expsym_cmds, $1)='$echo "{ global:" >
$output_objdir/$libname.ver~
~  cat $export_symbols | sed -e "s/\(.*\)/\1;/" >> $output_objdir/$libname.ver~
~  $echo "local: *; };" >> $output_objdir/$libname.ver~
~          $CC -shared'"$tmp_addflag"' $libobjs $deplibs $compiler_flags
${wl}-soname $wl$soname ${wl}-version-script
${wl}$output_objdir/$libname.ver -o $lib'
~        fi

It is only used on linux though, other ELF systems on which -version-script
should probably also be used, it is not.
