This is an (undocumented) FAQ:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.libtool.general/8772/focus=8803>
Your patch is not strict enough, and I would prefer if further
discussion actually added value to the already-long discussion
that you can for example find in the above thread (and others).
For example, a vote by (many) feet could be a reason to think
about throwing away backward compatibility and good programming
principles ...
Cheers,
Ralf
