Greetings!

I've got static linking working locally.  But we use a few functions
from libc which emit the following alarming warning:

functions:

getpwent
getpwnam
getpwuid
setpwent
endpwent
gethostbyaddr
gethostbyname

/fix/t1/camm/debian/gcl/tmp/tmp/foo/o/nsocket.c:157: warning: Using 
'gethostbyname' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the 
shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking

etc.

We could either

1) ignore the situation
2) omit the functionality if possible
3) try to provide static functionality.

Suggestions?

Take care,
