See, this is where my lack of knowledge kicks in.  I though I had a grasp 
on how the compiler/linker worked with static or dynamic bindings, but maybe 
I'm missing something..
(2 hrs. later)
Just checked - CursesW is in libg++.a, but not libg++.so.  I tries static 
with worse errors: it's not linking in curses.

And I thought all I'd need is an O'reily book!

Thanks for your help
