Yes. Something like a unlinked (virtual) library. Depending on it would not link that library but its object files. Shouldn't be that complicated but has its pitfalls: position independent code (PIC) is used for object going to a shared library but not for objects going to an executable or static library (unless you want to link the static library into a shared library). OTOH: including the same objects into different libraries defeats the purpose of shared libraries.
