   Synopsis
  </h2>
  <p class="indent" style="white-space:nowrap;">
   <code>AX_SET_VERSION_INFO [(VERSION [,PREFIX])]</code>
  </p>
  <h2>
   Description
  </h2>
  <div class="indent">
   <p>
    Defaults:
   </p>
   <pre>
  $1 = $PACKAGE_VERSION
  $2 = &lt;none&gt;
</pre>
   <p>
    Check the $VERSION number and cut the two last digit-sequences off which
    will form a -version-info in a @VERSION_INFO@ ac_subst while the rest is
    going to the -release name in a @RELEASE_INFO@ ac_subst.
   </p>
   <p>
    you should keep these two seperate - the release-name may contain
    alpha-characters and can be modified later with extra release-hints e.g.
    RELEASE_INFO="$RELEASE_INFO-debug" for a debug version of your lib. The
    $VERSION_INFO however should not be touched.
   </p>
   <p>
    example: a VERSION="2.4.18" will be transformed into
   </p>
   <pre>
   RELEASE_INFO = -release 2
   VERSION_INFO = -versioninfo 4:18
</pre>
   <p>
    then use these two variables and push them to your libtool linker
   </p>
   <pre>
   libtest_la_LIBADD = @RELEASE_INFO@ @VERSION_INFO@
</pre>
   <p>
    and for a linux-target this will tell libtool to install the lib as
   </p>
   <pre>
   libmy.so libmy.la libmy.a libmy-2.so.4 libmy-2.so.4.0.18
</pre>
   <p>
    and executables will get link-resolve-infos for libmy-2.so.4 - therefore
    the patch-level is ignored during ldso linking, and ldso will use the one
    with the highest patchlevel. Using just "-release $(VERSION)" during
    libtool-linking would not do that - omitting the -version-info will libtool
    install libmy.so libmy.la libmy.a libmy-2.4.18.so and executables would get
    hardlinked with the 2.4.18 version of your lib.
   </p>
   <p>
    This background does also explain the default dll name for a win32 target :
    libtool will choose to make up libmy-2-4.dll for this version spec.
   </p>
   <p>
    this macro does also set the usual three parts of a version spec
    $MAJOR_VERSION.$MINOR_VERSION.$MICRO_VERSION but does not ac_subst for the
    plain AX_SET_VERSION_INFO macro. Use instead one of the numbered macros
    AX_SET_VERSION_INFO1 (use first number for release part) or that
    AX_SET_VERSION_INFO2 (use the first two numbers for release part).
   </p>
   <p>
    You may add sublevel parts like "1.4.2-ac5" where the sublevel is just
    killed from these version/release substvars. That allows to grab the
    version off a .spec file like with <a href=
    "ax_spec_package_version.html">AX_SPEC_PACKAGE_VERSION</a> where the
    $VERSION is used to name a tarball or distpack like mylib-2.2.9pre4
   </p>
   <p>
    Unlike earlier macros, you can use this one to break up different VERSIONs
    and put them into different variables, just hint with PREFIX-setting - i.e.
    _VERSION(2.4.5,TEST) will set variables named TEST_MAJOR_VERSION=2... and
    of course $TEST_RELEASE_INFO etc. (for the moment, it needs to be a literal
    prefix *sigh*)
