Rightly so.  (However, statically linking binaries on the root
filesystem is another way to bloat it up.  If several early-running
programs need libfoo and end up statically linking it then, depending on
how much of libfoo each program uses, and how popular each program is,
etc., it could be profitable to move the shared library.)
