Replying to [comment:1 leif]:

the loader recognizes it as a shared library.

since PARI also builds a static version which typically has the same name
ending with {{{.a}}}...
I wonder what the logic is for having both shared and static? I'd rather
use the right extension on the right platform. I can discuss this with the
Pari developers after getting clarification from some AIX experts on
comp.unix.aix - they are a '''very''' helpful bunch.
