Thanks Xavier for this detailed (and lengthy) instructions. But they
are way too complicated and cumbersome imho.
Under Unix/Linux it's not that uncommon that you want to create both,
a shared and dynamic library (of the same name of course). Why not add
a new keyword to add_library like "BOTH" so it automatically creates
both types. On platforms like windows, where there are potential
problems as Brad outlined, you could output a warning or create a
workaround like two different output folders automatically.
