There is a world beyond linux yet, fortunately.

OpenBSD, for one, does install libiberty as a shared library.

We also are fairly happy that we can manage to compile libiberty just
once, not once for binutils and once for gcc (even though this means
a bit of hackery is needed to keep pieces synch'ed).

Actually, I am prepared to deal with API changes in libiberty.

But, hey, just because linux with H.J.Lu's toolchain doesn't do it 
doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
