Hello,
I don't think it's a necessary to disable static linkage completely on
MacOS X -- the fact that Apple thinks static linkage is a Bad Thing (TM)
and doesn't offer static versions of system libraries doesn't mean it
can't be useful to link certain other libraries statically in a CHICKEN
application.
But I think it would be a good idea to modify chicken-setup such that it
doesn't run ranlib on plain object files before installing them --
somehow this works on Linux, but the version of ranlib shipping with
MacOS X doesn't like it. It would (at least as far as my personal taste
is concerned) be even better to install library files for static eggs
instead of plain objects.
cu,
Thomas
