Hi,
 When a PHP program links to a library using include or require (or their
 _once variations), is the library then linked dynamically or statically?
 
 While it might seem irrelevant from a technical point of view, the
 linking method is important when it comes to licencing issues as some
 licences, like GPL, differ between those kinds of linking when it comes
 to viewing the library as a derivative work of the main program.
 
 Therefore it is quite important to know what kind of linking is in
 effect when including libraries, and I hope someone in this group can
 shed some light on this matter.
 
 Thank you very much in advance,
 Martin
