Dynamic linking is (almost) a separate issue. GHC 6.4 will have some support for dynamic linking in the native code generator thanks to Wolfgang Thaller, but it needs someone to push it the final mile on x86/Linux and Windows. Dynamically linked libraries will work (albeit slightly slower than statically linked ones), but you still have the versioning issue. Yay! :) Dynamically linked libraries are slower than statically linked ones in just about every implementation I know of. I don't care.
