1. Should these shared libraries be built, or should it just stick to

There are advantages and disadvantages with either... I don't really
have a strong opinion myself (as long as the result works). But if I had
to choose, I'd probably say static-only, if upstream relations and ease
of package maintenance matter. It might also result in leaner, meaner,
and 0.1% (or something) faster games.
And then you need to rebuild all reverse dependencies when there is a
security fix for the static library.
