Comment 1 Toei Rei 2008-12-19 07:56:25 UTC

Second Life builds are quite fragile and they depend on special versions of the libraries used.

Second side effect: If we'd use our own, we cannot report bugs upstream due to our own modifications.

Diego, as Rei says, this is a binary package that is fragile to any lib variance.  It will need to stay using its bundled libs in a strict sense.
