You do need to create one .sav file and many .dlms (well one .dlm and
then .so and .dll and...). The libraries that your build when creating
.dlms (or libs for CALL_EXTERNAL) are platform specific so those need to
be built for every OS you'll be supporting.

Not if you provide a pre-compiled library for their platform.
