Re: self contained library

[Ronald Landheer-Cieslak]

Do you mean by "self-contained" that it should even contain the C library 
functions it uses?

If so, the only way I know of doing it is to make a static library 
archive, and link it into a shared library, statically linking the C 
library into it.

I don't think Libtool knows how to do this, though (but you might get a 
long way getting it to make you a shared library and re-linking it 
statically to libc)
