Hi all,

I was interested in learning more about lxml. So, I wrote a couple of shell 
scripts that build lxml statically, and non-statically, and posted them on 
GitHub. Specifically, they are (I believe) the minimal code required to build 
lxml from source remotely on a freshly created Google Cloud Platform Cloud 
Compute VM, on a Debian Linux system.

I used the documentation some. However, I had to add -fPIC in a static build 
command, and set the environmental variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use lxml when 
built non-statically. I also used -i and build_ext (instead of build) when 
building lxml statically, and this was not in the docs.

My question is: would any of this help other lxml users and/or be worth putting 
in the documentation? Either way is fine - let me know! I'm happy to write up a 
PR for the docs if that's helpful too.

See https://github.com/abepolk/lxml-scripts.

Best,
Abe Polk
