Not to mention that this means the system will not be able to
share the lib if more than one C++ app runs at the same time.

So we're trading about 3MB of disk space (approx. $0.001) for 3MB * N of RAM
(where N is the number of apps, which is > $0.12 even for N=1).

Smart.

And did I mention the time, effort, and _frustration_ of users to
get the system running again? What if they didn't install via RPM?
Screw them, they deserve what they get, no? (in which case they
have a snowball's chance in hell of fixing the breakage without
going through hell and back).
