You get the same behavior for calls into that lib *all the time*, even across OS platforms, and not some hard reproducible support call because user installed rev x.y of that .dylib by the means of dports et al.
If you include _your_ private snapshot of that library as .dylib in you app, chances are you loose diskspace - with a dylib there is no chance the linker can strip e.g. most of the libtiff code because it is only used to embed an color profile tag into DNG files.

The linker has a chance, even with dynamic libraries.

So instead of filing a Radar about poor static library handling, filing one for stripping dylibs for specific application use? Just the way the linker would do it with static libraries?
