Linux/m68k has the same shared lib structure as Intel/SPARC/Alpha Linux, so
the answer to your first question is, yes.

As for the other questions.. GEM wouldn't need to know anything about it as
the it would be called in the same way whatever (as far as I can see, though
I could well be wrong). ST users wouldn't be able to use it as far as I'm
aware, and yes, I think MiNT should continue to support them. As for whether
MiNT should support shared libs for ST's..  that's another matter entirely.
