I seem to recall from previous discussions here that this is the correct=20
explanation: if you link to the shared lib and reference a method in the=20
static lib that wasn't used in the shared lib, you get a linking error beca=
use=20
the linker tries to be efficient too early on.

We should probably put this on techbase once it's confirmed by someone who=

actually knows what they're talking about (Thiago?  You always seem very cl=
ued=20
up on compiler and linker issues).
