I assume that by "pretends to be 14" you mean that GTK+-1.1.15
creates a shared library named libgtk-1.1.so.14.0.1. 

That is correct. GTK+-1.1.15 is binary compatible with 1.1.14,
so gets the same shared library major number. 

You should be happy you don't have to recompile all your
applications.

(I'm not sure what the problem was compiling eMusic, but
 it wasn't that)
