In GNU MPFR, we have a comment giving the form of the triple for each
MPFR version:
# MPFR -version-info
# 2.1.x -
# 2.2.x 1:x:0
# 2.3.x 2:x:1
# 2.4.x 3:x:2
# 3.0.x 4:x:0
# 3.1.x 5:x:1
# 4.0.x 6:x:0
libmpfr_la_LDFLAGS = $(MPFR_LDFLAGS) $(LIBMPFR_LDFLAGS) -version-info 6:0:0
and I've written a Perl script tools/ck-version-info that parses this
comment and checks that the values changes in a way that is consistent
with the libtool rules and that the -version-info value corresponds to
the form associated with the MPFR version. This script is run by
"make dist" via a dist-hook, so that before a release, one ensures
consistency and one keeps a trace of the history.
