Python as a shared library on Unix

[Paul Duffin]

Is it possible to build Python itself as a small executable and a
shared library, rather than an archive library which of
course results in a monolithic executable. 

I know how to get the modules built as shared libraries but cannot get
Python built as a shared library.
