You should use -version-info unless you need to keep compatible shared
library versions for existing libraries. Fontconfig was able to use
-version-info because it's minor version number was zero, but Xft uses
-version-number as it's version number is 2.1.
I'm no longer maintaining imake build mechanisms for Xrender, Xft, or
fontconfig; one build system is plenty.
I'm pretty happy with how fontconfig is set up to use automake; Noah
Levitt did Xft and Xrender, so he may have additional suggestions on what
would make things even better.
