Dynamic linking == modules are linked in before main() is entered.
Runtime linking == modules can be linked in on the fly (from main()
		   or any routine called from it)

I believe you should be able to do runtime linking from your
statically linked app. too.  I vaguely recall Paul
Kranenburg made some changes in June/July timeframe that
made this possible.  I can be mistaken though as I haven't
played with this in a while.
