I have used shared libs with gcc-3 under NetBSD/dreamcast without
problems, so a new toolchain should be enough.  Unfortunately, all
gcc-3 versions seem to have optimization bugs in the SH codegen.  The
best working version currently is 3.0.4, which only has a sibling call
bug which you need at least -O2 and -fomit-frame-pointer to trig.
