Why? I thought we avoid version bumps when add new functions, especially with ELF. I guess you think that size of fpos_t changed - it didn't. fpos_t "always" was typedefed to off_t, but fgetpos used ftell to construct the fpos_t... However, there is a change I omitted that would, IMO, require a major version bump: addition of (not so) new errno values to sys_errlist. :-| As I understand, applications dynamically linked with old libc will be confused by a change of size of this array...
