Yes, to use a typical Java virtual machine like Sun's JVM, Swarm must be
brought in via dynamic linking at runtime, and thus you need shared
libraries.
[It's possible to build an executable using the GNU Java compiler (gcj)
that has everything in a statically linked executable, but that's not
the norm, and I actually don't know if it is still possible with recent
gcj/libgcj.]
