Given the fact that it links to libgcrypt, it's probably best to link
mount.ecrypt statically. But then there is the same problem with
pam_ecryptfs.so, which also needs libgcrypt and libgpg-error. My naive attempts
to just link them statically into pam_ecryptfs.so have been met with protests by
the tools about portability (and, in any case, I haven't yet found a way to
coerce libtool to do that via a "proper" Makefile.am entry).

Note that plenty of other /lib/security files dynamically link stuff under
/usr/lib, including libcrack, libkrb4, libsmime3, etc. Since so many other
/lib/security/*so files link against libraries in /usr/lib, is it okay for
pam_ecryptfs.so to do the same?
