Sandboxing is usually done at a half-way house. So the "common" libraries
will be available and dynamically linked in (via read-only pages, of
course). But the "uncommon" libraries are statically-linked and shipped
with the 'app'.
Of course it doesn't take too many years until a once-uncommon library is
widely used, and not too many years after that until it has a serious bug.
