And there are even better reasons for using a little intelligence regarding
when to dynamically link something, and when not to.  Unfortunately, being
a disparate collection of pieces by different people rather than a cohesive
whole, your average Linux distribution rarely pays attention to them.

"Oh, gee, I can't mount /usr.  I guess all your stuff in /bin doesn't work
any more.  Sorry, guess you're not going to be able to fix it, either,
because nothing else works."

And so on.
