The version of the DSO is _not_ coupled to the version of netcf - I
follow the libtool recommendations for versioning the DSO[1] It leads to
version numbers M.N.R for DSO's where M is only ever incremented if the
interface changes in a backwards incompatible way, N is incremented when
the interface is expanded, and R is incremented when the implementation
changes. (Note that that is _not_ the way it is written down in
configure.ac)

That means that your additions should go into a section

  NETCF_1.1.0 {
        global:
          ncf_if_xml_state;
  } NETCF_1.0.0;

in src/netcf_public.syms.
