Hello,
I may be wrong but the above explanation sounds as if the build process may
include some static libraries (APR) into a shared library (log4cxx). Isn't that
wrong? Static libs are usually compiled without -fPIC, which is, AFAIK, required
for object code that goes into shared libs on at least some platforms. See for
example this discussion:
