Actually, if your system has shared libraries, and you are able to compile
the yabbs client from sources (phred.pc.cc.cmu.edu:/pub/yabbs/yabbscli.tar.gz)
you can build a much smaller client using shared libraries.

All the binaries in phred.pc.cc.cmu.edu:/pub/yabbs/clients are linked
statically though so that they are portable between systems that may have
different versions of the shared libraries.
