------- Comment #9 from jakub at redhat dot com 2007-11-02 14:24 ------- The only at least partially workable way of linking statically against NPTL libpthread.a is -Wl,--whole-archive -lpthread -Wl,--no-whole-archive. There is just a huge amount of issues if you don't have everything in there in (e.g. the various cancellation wrappers, which for dynamically linked code can handle cancellation even in libc.so, but not so for the heavily unsupported static linking. Guess we should just change glibc Makefiles to ld -r all libpthread.a objects together and install that as libpthread.a instead.
