Yeah ... I have always thought that to be the very strong point in LibGGI.
It can be compiled with all drivers and put on a system that doesn't, and it 
will not break, if the prerequisites of any driver are not met, as long as 
this driver is not used. The power of dynamic loading.

Yes. Though it has the advantage of being more portable with less effort.
