Basically, this paint gun should not be installed up on an arm like in a car wash, where
it is out of reach of the operator.

There is no tool or automatic test that can make this particular choice for us at this point.

This is because CMake is incapable of knowing that a static library is DSO destined,
especially if that static library is *also* executable destined.

Normally CMake does and can provide this flag behind the scenes. This is when the
intermediate static library is not in the picture.

Here, we can rely on experience to decide, but only if the tuning knobs are within reach.
