This ABI breakage is unrelated to the C++ version used.

RandomTools::lnGamma() was removed from src/Bpp/Numeric/Random/RandomTools.cpp
TextTools::startsWith() was removed from src/Bpp/Text/TextTools.cpp
ApplicationTools::parameterExists() was removed from src/Bpp/App/ApplicationTools.cpp
...

Removing any such function breaks the ABI in an incompatible way,
and therefore requires a soname bump.
