You can't convince me, because it's not ;-)
Let's be clear: it's a kludge to get decent compile times using the MinGW
compiler.
FYI, dynamic linking with Qt4.1 with full debug (-g) is very quick so I
guess it should be possible to reduce this compile times significantly
by re-architecturing the Qt3win port (I mean the library, not the
frontend) by using more forward declaration. But this is of course
beyond the scope of the Lyx project.
Let's also be clear: compile times are better for you, but not
significantly better for me.
Same here. It's unacceptable in both cases because I can't use the
computer for many hours (Windows is not very good at multitasking).

Uniting the scripts is a different issue. I'm sure that it's not beyond the
wit of man to modify development/Win32/packaging/build_lyxwin.sh so that
there are both static and dynamic routes. Usage:
sh build_lyxwin.sh static '1.3.7pre9'
or
sh build_lyxwin.sh dynamic '1.3.7pre9'
where '1.3.7pre9' is an optional extra (as now).
