Is it really necessary for the plugin to be linked to the lib at all?  It's 
being dynamically loaded _from_ the lib, which should take care of the 
dependency at runtime, and not need it at compile time.  I'd rather not go 
back to having the plugins linked to libmyth unless absolutely necessary - 
it's much easier to update.

And, yeah, the version numbering is because I occasionally want to run a 
stable lib with a dev version. =)

I'll get everything but the lib linking changes in to CVS..
