This is why people prefer to have the sources. Not to hack it, but just to build an executable that fits their system. I found that shared library problems are worst on Linux than on Windoze. So many distributions, so many vendors and so many different versions around ( just look the number of different GCC version with their different ABI and different level of C++ compliance ), that, without special care, an executable usually only works on the distro it has been build for.
