Oh right, how could I forget that awful aspect of using libtool? I hate my life; maybe 2024 will be the year I find a decent build tool and the motivation to move projects to it.
Contra your slight defense, is it really so hard to produce a good DSO these days? -fPIC is half the battle and a couple other weird flags for macOS/darwin will do you. Cross-compiling for Windows, sure, a few more flags — but you look them up once on stackoverflow, you have three options, and you're done.
