Yes, you can. In order to build shared libraries for LAM, you will need
to rebuild from a source tarball. At configure time, specify
'--enable-shared'. LAM will be built with both shared and static
libraries.
A couple important notes. First, you will need to include more than just
libmpi.so in order to use LAM. If you run 'mpicc -showme', you can see
all the libraries LAM/MPI is going to link in. Second, not all the
packages that ship with LAM/MPI support shared libraries. You will not be
able to build ROMIO with shared library support.
