Something tells me that it is not correct for Windows.  Under Windows 
I see a lack of versioning and libtool adds a simple number like 
name-7.dll to the name.  Not all OSs support library versioning, so in 
that case applications would continue using the older library and 
freshly compiled applications would use the newer library.
