True, but then some libraries are harder to avoid than others.  For
example...

Only in UT3-linux-server-betademo/Binaries: libgcc_s.so.1
Only in UT3-linux-server-betademo/Binaries: libstdc++.so.6

Could be that too.  As a comparison between the original release
version of the the dedi server and 1.3 shows...

Only in ut3-dedicated/Binaries: libPhysXCore.so

But then as I remember PhysX was not supposed to be the problem.
Of course it was in the original dedi release so it seems unlikely.

Which still leaves loads of possibilities, including many that relate
to licensing in some way.  I can't really think of anything that
doesn't come back to them, not that makes sense to me anyway.  Then
again, I am not a lawyer!
