Static linking with ld

[Freddy Jensen]

Hi Folks,

   I have a question about the ld command on the RS/6000.

   ld  normally uses dynamic linking, when you build an
   executable.  This is fine; you save disk space and all
   that.  However,  I need occasionally to move my executable
   to other machines, and (for testing purposes) I would like
   to be able to link them  statically, so the program is self-
   contained and moveable.

   I have not been able to find an option (like Sun's -Bstatic)
   which can do that for me.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Freddy
