 No, you didn't. Why not correct it instead of posting a useless reply?

 Because this would complicate the makefiles needlessly as they'd need to
create either one or two sets of object files and we don't think this is
necessary as it's easy enough to do 2 builds (in different directories) if
you need both static and shared versions of the libraries (which on its own
is rare enough).
