It is used by libtool to determine the .so version. Right now the 
library is libxorg-gtest.so.0.0.0. Bumping the LIB_VERSION bumps the 
numbers at the end of the so. See 
http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Updating-version-info.html 
for version details.

However, I have a bunch of patches that change xorg-gtest from a 
precompiled library distribution to a source distribution to match what 
gtest recommends. I'll fold this into those changes since the library 
will be going away.

Thanks!
