there will be essentially no more code than if you do a static link,
except of course that you will get, for example, all of GTK+ rather than
just the parts you use. one way or another, your "distribution" has to
contain everything your app needs; its either statically linked *into*
the binary, or it sits "next to it" as "private shared libraries".

the script will be more or less identical on most systems.

probably true.
