I think this is dependent on compiler/linker/loader version and flags,
e.g., it might work with dynamic linkage but not static (symbol name
clashes), or might work with newer linkers but not older ones.

} Modules gdbm and pcre aren't built by default and they make

} aren't build by default - because they add dependencies to zsh binary

It's because they add *licensing* dependencies, IIRC, not because they
add shared-object dependencies.
