In how far does that affect the filename?

This is a loadable module, not a link library, and unlike other language
interpreters which load extensions directly based on file name, Tcl
package-type extensions are loaded based on a metadata file
(pkgIndex.tcl).  It is actually typical of Tcl extensions to be
versioned in this way.

If it's hidden under /usr/lib/tcl or whatever, I don't see a problem with the fully-versioned library file. It's only for tcl-sqlite's use, and it's behind a layer of indirection, so it can call its file whatever it wants.
