If the library is built as a shared library, one can get the
--disable-shared behavior by linking it non-shared (gcc -static which
invokes AIX ld with -bnso). This makes it a user choice instead of
limiting the options by choosing --disable-shared at build time.
--disable-shared obtains the same effect but limits the users options and
makes the library less like the functionality on other platforms. Where's
the advantage?
