I do not agree:

Rule no 2 applies (lib/Makefile.am, line 96: if interfaces were added
use C+1:0:A+1). So version info should be set as:

if SONAME_BUMP
VERSIONINFO=-version-info 9:0:4
else
VERSIONINFO=-version-info 8:0:4
Endif

This won't change the final SONAME on platforms which support what you
described, because they use C-A for SONAME. But others (i.e.: iSeries)
will bump (they use C alone).
