*nix is really not correct to say. Currently only Linux 64bit supports
shared libraries. It's not like it's broken on all platforms, just one.
Sure, it will break once we get support for share libraries on
additional platforms.
If static linking is default nothing is broken.
Which format can we use for these platform specific packages? For which
of these are there existing bindings or libraries?
