Hi Ulrich, I just now quickly tried to with klibc-1.5 on i386 with the PIE-randomization patched kernel, and it seems to load static libraries fine. I just downloaded klibc-1.5, built it, and executed a few of the programs in usr/utils/static, all of them worked. Does this also work for you and you are experiencing the problems solely when the binaries are being run from initramfs during boot? I will test more shortly (on x86_64, directly from initramfs) in order to reproduce.
