FVWM: libfvwm - Why not a shared object library?

 Is there any reason why libfvwm is not implememented as a shared
object on OS's that have them, such as Linux? Seems like all it would
take would be to use some #ifdef's in the .tmpl file, and add the Imake
rules for shared libraries inside them.

 I will pick up the O'Reily Nutshell Imake book next month if my
student budget permits, and look into doing that. Maybe I can provide
a patch; that is, if I can figure out how to do it without spoiling
FVWM's makeability on OS's without shared libraries.
