Thank you Roger. 
Actually my main framework is not a C/C++ project a Lisp application so I have 
no choice but dynamic-linking C libraries.
I think opening a repository for binaries would allow contributors to post 
their build and address different platforms. That would be very helpful!
Best
Jean
