Found mention of it in this discussion: http://bugs.python.org/issue771998 "I disagree that --enable-shared should be the default. It is difficult to maintain, as finding shared libraries is always a PITA (in particular on Solaris). Its only real use is for embedding, in even in the case of embedding, it is possible to avoid using shared libraries." -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
