I don't see any reason today use anything but shared libraries. We in 2010.
There are many good reasons to use static libraries, but that's irrelevant to this discussion.
I think it is relevant. So there ought to be a different set of libraries for each version of gcc? For each combination of BOOST_NO_IOSTREAM, BOOST_NO_TYPEID and so on and so on? For the misguided sake of an ABI? I've used boost for quite a while but never been interested in using the generic shared libraries. - Nigel
