Just write your own Makefile. See the snippets below;

BASENAME = foo
VERSION_MAJOR = 1
VERSION_MINOR = 0
...
OBJS = bar.o baz.o ...
...
SHARED            = lib$(BASENAME).so.$(VERSION_MAJOR).$(VERSION_MINOR)
...
# build the shared library
$(SHARED):      $(OBJS)
        cc -shared -Wl,-soname,lib$(BASENAME).so.$(VERSION_MAJOR) \
        -o $(SHARED) $(OBJS) $(LIBS)
        strip -g --strip-unneeded $(SHARED)
