I was chatting with dirk about this once and he convinced me that it's a nice 
feature to have on Linux where it's possible to use the lib as plugin and 
shared lib at the same time. E.g. applications like konsole that provide a 
KPart and a shell. To save some startup time konsole on Linux could link to 
it's part instead of dlopening it.
