Does that mean, that I can source the dictionary generated by rootcint in
the interpreter? (I tried but it seemed not to work.)

Or does it mean that I have to compile the dictionary (and the library?)
into an interface library? That's what I want to do anyway in the long
run, but for testing and cross-platform use it would be nice to use the
existing shared libraries (actually it was FORTRAN) and an interface
script.

Or does it mean that I have to use rootcint on the library sources? (Well
it's FORTRAN ;-(
