Description

When building log4cxx, using cmake results in a library like the following:

liblog4cxx.so.0.11.0

However, when building with autotools, the binary is the following:

liblog4cxx.so.10.0.0

Things to do:

1. Fix the cmake build to do the same as autotools for consistency.
2. (optional) remove autotools so we don't have this problem in the future.
3. (optional) If we're not removing autotools, fix the so versioning.
