A fourth way is to just rebuild everything depending on argyll every
time its version is bumped. Which is painful but less painful than the
current fork + static linking situation.

Gecko, openssl… are examples of stuff that forces rebuilding regularly,
because they don't have any fixed ABI. We still prefer this over the
alternatives.
