Whoever picks this up might want to consider switching to cmake, and installing static libs instead of shared libs. The current ebuild installs shared libs with libtools default soname version (0). The cmake build doesn't even bother with that and installs bare .so files. I don't think they are intended to be used as systemwide shared libraries.
