That could be made to work, although the problem with shared libraries is that the way you build them differs from UNIX to UNIX; we could perhaps throw in a special hack for AIX, but the ideal would be something using libtool to figure out the right thing to do on a variety of platforms (although it'd be useful to be able to configure it to build static libraries as well). - This is the TCPDUMP workers list.
