If you invoke these repeteadly static linking will kill your performance
and scalability.

If the approriate versions of the libraries are installed in /lib;/usr/lib
your process should find them

You can merrilly install multiple versions of the same library on the same
machine.  If compiled correctly ld will be able to figure it all out.

Thats is my libraries have names ending in things like .0.1 and .0.2,
etc...  I'll bet you have both /usr/lib/libform.so.4 and
/usr/lib/libform.so.5.  And even though /usr/lib/libform.so is a symlink
to /usr/lib/libform.so.5 ncurses v4 based apps just chug along.  Lets see
Mr. Gate's OS handle that!
