I agree with John: this paragraph is technically incorrect. See

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681914%28v=VS.85%29.aspx

for an "official" definition of the relevant terms.

I vaguely recall objecting to that text when it got added, but in the 
discussion, it would have meant that I would have to rewrite the text myself, 
which I didn't want to (maybe I'm confusing this with something else, though).

In any case, it would be possible to actually use static linking as well for 
Python. There are currently no VS projects defined to create a static library, 
and such a thing couldn't dynamically load modules (which might not be 
necessary for embedding).

I agree with Terry that it would be best if John would produce some text he's 
happy with.
