*That's* the reason for static?!? See mod_aspdotnet and several
others for how to pin a particular .so module for the lifetime of
the process, instead of per-restart.
Why can't we make some simpler API for such modules instead
hacking the current one when it is obvious that there are
modules that cannot survive the graceful restart?
No modules in trunk should require static compilation, period.
There is a difference between should and must, but seems
to me there's no decent API for that.
