Basically the last thing we did during target processing was to generate shlib symlinks for e.g. libfoo.so -> libfoo.so.1.
In some cases we would dispatch to another function and return early, though, which meant we never got far enough to generate the symlinks. This then led to breakage when people tried to compile against libfoo.so
This surely breaks -uninstalled.pc usage, and also caused problems in rust-lang/rust#90260
