Should make it explicit what the compatibility guarantees for
libomptarget are, maybe even discourage OS distributions to
pre-package libomptarget into ldconfig default paths? At least on Arch
Linux updating the openmp package will break previously

I asked the maintainer to install libomptarget and the plugin because
otherwise there are link errors when compiling an OpenMP application
with target directives. That's worse from a users perspective.

Really, this thread was about the device runtime which I still think
would be nice to keep working with one released version of Clang. Based
on the other comments in this thread, that's not going to happen -
acknowledged.
The host runtimes on the other side are linked dynamically and IMO it's
one of the strengths of libomp to mix-and-match versions. Unless
there's a compelling reason, I'll make another plea to keep
compatibility.

    <p>Right, this thread was not about *any* `.so` runtime.<br>
