I'm not very comfortable with this approach.
The tentative patch did not fill me with confidence; my gut is that it
was not as robust as an approach that libraries like libc6  took, and
unfortunately I do not have enough experience with the internals of
libc6 and various multi-ABI approaches across the years to have
confidence either way.
I could use some help from someone who has approached this sort of issue
and deployed changes like this in production.

Steve and I agreed to revert the rename  on IRC, effectively accepting
the ABI break because it doesn't matter for the archive.
We may look at better solutions when we have a bit of time.
