The best solution to this is to move these baseline files to sysdeps
directories (they should probably go in the same directories as abilist
files). Similarly, localplt baselines should also go in sysdeps
directories. If that's done for both of them, then there's no need for
ABI lines in shlib-versions files any more (but by using ABI lines it's
probably possible to use separate baselines right now without moving the
files to sysdeps).
