While it's true that System VR3 includes static shared libraries, my experience
has been that only the system utilities actually use them.  Of many products
my former employer had, including WordPerfect, Q-Calc, 20/20, Informix, and
Oracle, *none* used the shared libc.a.

Things might be different with newer R4 systems.
