Why don't you add symbol versioning to libmp, so that old

Well, even without symbol versioning this could be done, by just making
a __strong_reference() between the symbols, but I decided not to do so.
I think solutions like these are perfect when just renaming/removing a
couple of symbols, but because we're basically touching everything, I
thought we'd better just use the old approach.
Well, as long as you're in there, maybe you should add
symbol versioning anyway, even after a library version
bump. Seems like it would be easy since there aren't
that many symbols.
