The SimGear ABI changes are of no consequence in this case (and there'll
soon be a new release anyway). The problem isn't SimGear itself, it's
that it doesn't work to link to two incompatible versions of OSG in the
same program (FGRun is compiled against OSG 2.8, but now SimGear is
compiled against OSG 3.0, and thus both gets loaded by FGRun). As far as
I know, standard procedure in such cases is not to bump SONAME, but to
schedule binNMUs.
