Problem statically linking sh-utils-2.10 with glibc version 2.1.3

[Joel Beach]

Hi everyone,

I am having a lot of problems getting sh-utils to statically link with my
glibc. Everything works perfectly when it is dynamically linked (passes all
tests), but when I statically link it complains about symbols being
redefined (once in libsu.a and once in libc.a) and then bombs out because
the symbol is resized (from what I can gather anyway). Here's some more
info if you need it:

The package was configured using 

address@hidden sh-utils-2.0]# ./configure --prefix=/mnt/lfs/usr
--disable-nls

I then built it using:

address@hidden sh-utils-2.0]# make LDFLAGS=-static

The output of a make can be viewed in the attachment provided or by visting
the following:

Some more information is provided below....

address@hidden joel]$ ld -v
GNU ld version 2.10.90 (with BFD 2.10.0.24)

address@hidden sh-utils-2.0]# gcc -v       
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux/2.95.3/specs

address@hidden sh-utils-2.0]# strings /usr/lib/libc* | grep "release
version"

I don't subscribe to the list (If you can subscribe!!), so if you could cc
replies to:

address@hidden

that would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your help.
