I may be missing something here but would it not be neccessary to define a
default symbol?
Otherwise there would be multiple definitions of a given symbol and the linker
won't know which symbol version to bind to.

Following your example, something along these lines:
 4) Edit lib/<library>/library_version.map to add a DPDK_1.9 node that is a
   successor to DPDK_1.8, in which foo is exported as a global symbol 
   DPDK_1.9 {
      global: foo;
   } DPDK_1.8;

 5) rename new function int foo(int index) to
   int __vsym foo_v19(int index)

 6) Add this macro immediately below the function:
   DEFAULT_SYMBOL(foo, _v19, 1.9);

#define DEFAULT_SYMBOL(b, e, v) __asm__(".symver " SA(b) SA(e) ", "SA(b)"@@DPDK_"SA(v))
