Was this regression intentional, and if so, how are projects that use scons to build shared libraries on macOS now supposed to set library version information? Should they manually specify -current_version and -compatibility_version?

The developers of serf are preparing to release serf 1.4.0, and I'm trying to help them ensure that they finally fix the shared library versioning issue on their end, hopefully in a way that's compatible with both current and future versions of scons.
