This is a bit off-topic, but here is my ugly hack to compile a
statically linked 'mkimage' from the U-Boot tree:
Place this file, 'Makefile.mkimage' in u-boot/tools/
---[snip]---
CFLAGS = -O2 -static -I../include -DUSE_HOSTCC -I.
ASMDIR = ../include/asm
CFILES = ../lib_generic/crc32.c ../libfdt/fdt_strerror.c \
../lib_generic/sha1.c ../lib_generic/md5.c ../common/image.c \
../libfdt/fdt_wip.c ../libfdt/fdt.c ../libfdt/fdt_ro.c \
../libfdt/fdt_rw.c
mkimage: mkimage.c
mv $(ASMDIR) $(ASMDIR).back
ln -s $(ASMDIR)-i386 $(ASMDIR)
gcc $(CFLAGS) $(CFILES) mkimage.c -o mkimage
rm -f $(ASMDIR)
mv $(ASMDIR).back $(ASMDIR)
strip mkimage
default: mkimage
---[snip]---
Then just run 'make -f Makefile.mkimage' from within tools/. Of course
this uses some nasty tricks that will only work on i386 host. I don't
think I'm the first person to have this need, so others here may have
better solutions.
