Not at all, if all revdeps build fine with the bumped version.

"I'm assuming that distributions do not recompile packages against a new
library version, unless absolutely needed - if I'm right library ABI
changes cause silent issues." sounds very wrong to me. We always
recompile packages against a new soname when that is uploaded, and as we
try to keep packages uptodate a new soname is normally uploaded every time
it's bumped by the upstream.
