On another hand, it's quite strange to have the same lib in different  
files on the same system, and I think linux distros make possible to  
ensure that libs are all of the same version.
I'm currently building rpm packages for mandrake linux, and I think it  
would be really cleaner to use system libs.

I'm really far of a compiler specialist, but if it is possible, it would  
be really nice to keep those options :-)

Regards,
