Bug Description
Since r2408, legacy clients link to two libmircommon's simultaneously...
For example, running an older client binary against newer Mir works, but it requires:
libmirclient.so.8 => ./lib/libmircli
libmircommon.so.3 => /usr/lib/
libmircommon.so.4 => /home/dan/
This could be risky to maintain two copies of the same library in the same address space.

Note this will only happen for "legacy" clients using newish functions like MirEvent 2.0. As outlined in bug 1415321.
So likely only Canonical projects are affected. Less likely that 3rd party projects are up-to-date enough to be affected.
