I'm sure you could still create some compile time errors ;-)
Yes, doing things dynamically means you won't catch nearly as much at
compile time. I think with some reasonable testing this really isn't
so bad.
Another option would be to develop a separate C library and have the
configure scripts for 'A' and 'B' find where it is installed.
