My point is: why changing the name even if nothing changed. Take 
libxfce4util.so.1. In 4.0.6 it was libxfce4util.so.1 too.

When the ABI doesn't gets changed, it makes no sence to rename the
library.

If it is requiered to install different versions of xfce4, install them in
different locations (--prefix) and use -L to make shure everything
gets linked against the right library. Further, use -rpath to make shure
it will use the right library later.
