Ok, makes sense howard, as usual. Thanks for making it clear. 
Does linux 68k have shared lib? if yes, the question is, would GEM
cope with that kind? if yes or no, Well do we have to always keep in
mind ST users? If yes, still keeping ST user, wouldn't be possible to
propose versions? WITH shared lib/without? 
(just curious to know all that, scuse me for my ignorance, I know it
bugs the hell out of knowledgable people).
thanks
