Re: static vs. shared linking

I've been having difficulty building poco-1.6.0 for Cygwin for some
time. I've managed to produce a test case that shows the problem:

This archive contains source files that produce a very simple library.
When linked statically, the code works fine. However, when linked as a
shared DLL, the test crashes with a core dump. The behaviour is
identical on x86 and x86_64 architectures.

As a quick test, I moved all of the inlined code from crash_library.h into the cpp file, as I wanted to rule out some crazy inlining problem. As expected, the shared library version still crashed.
