Yes.

For the sake of consistency, it does. At least in my case ;-)
I have (among others) a host=Mingw,target=Linux and 
host=Linux,target=Linux compiler. Since shared can't be compiled for 
host=Mingw, I use static for both compiler. So at least I have the same 
problems with both. Even if the host=Linux could be done better.
The same in this case. I would only have the problem with the 
host=Mingw,target=Linux compiler. And I doubt anyone would be interested 
to help out here. With the host=Linux,target=Linux, the changes are 
higher...
