It probably depends a bit upon your platform and robustness of your
dynamic linker. It also may introduce problems with version mismatches
and thus introduces much more variables in the trouble shooting case. I
would suspect Doug wants to reduce the problem case to something more
simple.
If you have your build environment under control (all modules build
using a coherent set of compilers and build flags) and want a very
flexible solution with the same set of binaries on multiple hosts DSO's
work fine, I use it all the time.
