so name bump; impact on major, minor and patch version

Hi,

I noticed the discussion on size_t, and saw an so name bump was considered,
to implement changes to would break the ABI.

Excuse my ignorance, what is the impact on the major version, minor version
and patch version when an so name bump is done?

On VMS usually the major version is increased, to make it impossible for
calling programs developed against a lower version to even open the shared
image.

Jose.
