There are also some policy questions we need to answer about how Cabal will work with a GHC that uses dynamic libraries by default.

btw, how is it planned to have .so libraries interact with the soon-to-be-released cabal-install sandbox feature?

I don't think anything special needs to be done. The RPATHs will still point to the right DLL if it's in a sandbox. Please let me know if there's a problem that I'm missing, though! Thanks Ian
