I think it'd be best to bundle or statically link all libs not included
in MacOS/X as shipped, if at all possible. Mac users seem happy to
accept somewhat bloated apps in exchange for standalone installs, and
this is probably something that should be taken into account.
It's probably not a big deal whether they're bundled as separate libs or
statically linked thanks to the Mac `.app' dir setup that lets you
collect up all files for an app into an "object" that behaves to the
user as it if was a single program binary.
