The cmake build should work:

BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL
  Flag indicating is shared libraries will be built. Its default value
  is OFF. Shared libraries are not supported on Windows and not
  recommended in the other OSes.

The "not recommended" part is, IIRC, due to the overhead that dynamic
libraries introduce on startup, which is very noticeable when you are
executing a short process lots of times (i.e. a test suite)
