Depending on the shared code, I prefer version 2 and version 6,
whereas version 6, the automatic loading of common code seems
to be more generic, and therefore preferable.
The only problem I see is, when distributing a patch with the used
externals people might tend to forget to copy the common code
part (external)

They ugly thing about version 6 is that you have to supply a stub for
every external symbol, otherwise you probably would not be able to load
the externals, ...
