The admin guide contains examples, is not authoritative, and may not apply to all cases (For example, statically built modules wouldn't work with the config you noted). The manual pages are the authoritative documentation, and they explicitly allow for either the .la or .so files:
Unless I'm missing something, this documentation doesn't mention any extensions :). So technically it allows for arbitrarily named modules ;).
In any case, that's a bit of a tangent; what do you think about the main question, no longer including the so version number in the installed modules? So:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 811 May 22 18:41 accesslog.la -rwxr-xr-x 1 henson henson 151064 May 22 18:41 accesslog.so
Just the la and so with no additional so symbolic links?
moduleload <filename> Specify the name of a dynamically loadable module to load. The filename may be an absolute path name or a simple filename. Non- absolute names are searched for in the directories
specified
by the modulepath option. This option and the modulepath option are only usable if slapd was compiled with --enable-modules.
