Current HP doesn't include nor it does support building shared libraries.
When someone is starting a project using HP and needs to switch to shared
libraries it actually becomes a roadblock.
Lately I was installing Jenkins (continuous integration server) and had to
have a separate HP installations. After few iterations project had to--for
deployment reasons--switch to shared libraries. I solved this by patching
HP's generic tarball. This approach worked not only for current version
2011.4.0.0 but also for older 2011.2.0.x.
Patch is included. It introduces new {{{--enable-shared}}} options for
configure script.
