Why wouldn't you put the skeletons (server-side stubs) in the same
library as the stubs? The size of the client is not affected by
placing the skeletons in the same library the stubs are located, since
the stubs generally don't depend on the skeletons. The linker will
simply link the stub objects to the client, not the skeletons. OTOH,
skeletons generally do depend on the stubs so it would be somewhat
beneficial to have a single library containing both stubs and
skeletons, IMO.
