Indeed, the master branch uses SONAME-versioning. Any applications (like 
qemu) using libgfapi.so need to get re-compiled to use the update.

Yes, you are correct. The master branch will become glusterfs-3.6. You 
should be able to recompile qemu (and other?) packages on a system that 
has glusterfs-devel-3.6 installed. I can also recommend the use of 
'mockchain' (from the 'mock' package) for rebuilding glusterfs and other 
dependent packages.

Cheers,
Niels
