I guess this is a dumb question, but why doesn't Valve statically link
against the libraries they use? Wouldn't that solve the problem at a
slight overhead in memory for server admins?

No Orange Box update today. The one we wanted to release includes new steam
binaries, and they require new versions of libstdc++.so. Many older linux
distributions commonly in use do not have the proper libs, and they aren't
available simply by installing a package. So releasing it as is would be very
disruptive. Figuring out the best way to package it to create minimum
disruption, and get it tested, is taking longer than expected.
