My goal is to have a robust Linux application that I can develop (at least 
for the present) on Mac OS.

Actually it is a long story that I've somewhat forgotten. I had used static 
libraries in the past. When trying to use the boost.build v2 (bjam or b2) 
to compile my python extensions I found it easier to use shared libraries 
rather than static as a number of libraries don't like to be statically 
linked twice (I didn't take the time to figure out why a particular library 
was getting linked twice).

Anyhow, I will find a work around, I was only asking if there was a 
relatively easy solution (other than not using Mac OS) that was already 
known.
