Using wrong ABI stable lib or libexec dir
a) should however only hit users which can be expected to know what they  
do? (ie. kdelibs developers)
b) hinting that by a crash isn't the ideal way (nasty AND unreliable ...  
;-)

Maybe one could trick around here to get -rpath away from that lib, but  
since there's also an independent version of oxygen (ARGB enabled) which  
probably links liboxygenstyle as well(?) bumping the .so would be quite  
reasonable - at least to avoid conflicts on this side.

Now actually those really should care about the lib path  - and actually  
better the plugin path as well - for their own good :-P
