It's because the dev package stays the same, it does not depend on the soname.

time T:

/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so → libfoo.so.1 (CSWfoo-dev)
/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so.1 → libfoo.so.1.0.0 (CSWlibfoo1)
/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so.1.0.0 (CSWlibfoo1)

time T+1:

/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so → libfoo.so.2 (CSWfoo-dev)
/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so.1 → libfoo.so.1.0.0 (CSWlibfoo1)
/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so.1.0.0 (CSWlibfoo1)
/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so.2 → libfoo.so.2.0.0 (CSWlibfoo2)
/opt/csw/lib/libfoo.so.2.0.0 (CSWlibfoo2)

And so on. CSWlibfooX progresses, CSWfoo-dev stays.
