Right now, no.  SALSA-lib provides only the source-level API
compatibility, not binary compatibility at all.  The reason is that
the binary-compatibility would expand the size of library greatly.
As its name suggests, "small and spicy" is the advantage of SALSA :)

Of course, it'd be welcome if someone writes a patch to add the
binary-compatibility feature, but it must be still optional.

BTW, I proposed SALSA in the last thread because a static library was
in the question.
