      We keep getting issues related to SERVER-30955 popping up over and over again, and it's very confusing when it does because we get an unhelpful error message from the dynamic loader during startup:

      The problem is due to a hard-coded limit in the MacOS dynamic loader at src/ImageLoader.cpp@87:

      	if ( libCount > 512 )
		dyld::throwf("too many dependent dylibs in %s", path);

      Since this is a hard-coded limit, we should be able to determine during build that we are about to breach it and fail with a more helpful message. After implementing, re-enable dynamic builds for OSX.
