making my extensions work together

[Mathew]

This isn't exactly a Python question but maybe someone here has run into 
this.

I have 2 extensions and they both access a function in a (static) library. 
The function maintains state information using a static variable.

This doesn't work. When one of my extensions changes the variable value, the 
other extension does not see the change.

Would it work if I made my library dynamic?

This is on Windows XP compiling with MSVC 2008.
