As you said in #595608, hardcoding the SONAME in find_library() isn't the right
usage (and it doesn't work at all). So you're suggesting to use something like:

    lib_name = find_library('las')[:-1] + '1'

? This seems hacky to me, but it's the "hardcoding" you're asking for.
However, you're right, the current patch might cause problems in future.
