Having it OFF for a dynamic lib isn't a problem. If they are compiling a dynamic lib, then they are are not "compiling statically for distribution".

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to warn about here?

I have only copied text from the comment, as it only says that there are problems, but nothing more. From #254 I also couldn't figure out why the option really has to be set as a default and couldn't just be added from outside if needed.

If you're trying to package the lib for distribution, you can just turn it off by setting E57_RELEASE_LTO to OFF.
