Comment (by pulkomandy):
We could make it so the drivers load the string from a shared catalog by
loading it manually (skipping the B_TRANSLATE macros and using BCatalog
API directly). Do we want to do that, however? The point of the static
library is that it is bundled inside the driver, so it is independant. If
the catalog is shared, then this feature (self contained driver) is lost
because it needs to be used with the right version of the shared catalog.
Unfortunately the patch does not apply cleanly anymore.
