        Oh drat, that is annoying. I wonder if we can create multiple shared
libraries from the same object files to solve that - and link the
build-time tools to those (?).

        Sounds great - how many did we manage to ram into libmerged ?

        Looks fine to me :-)

        Yes - we're still under significant shlib count pressure on android
sadly; and of course for iOS we'll need to statically link ~everything
into one binary - which is rather more of a fun challenge :-)
