This is something that gets fixed using static linking, no? But perhaps 
making correct static linking while building a shared library is not so 
easy, compared to making a standalone app.

A few years ago, I had written this line, in order to compile with 
libruby.a and still produce a .so :

   lib = "-Wl,--whole-archive"+lib+"-Wl,--no-whole-archive" unless OSX

You give those options to GCC, but the "-Wl," means "delegate the 
following option directly to LD"

Have you ever tried that?
