But who said that *entire* system should be statically linked?
The conversation is so far only about such a critical thing as portage.

If you project require strong security, than it would be simpler to use static

Why the hell not?
Once you have a source-based distro the package manager can be a
matter of choice also -- so long as it accepts the existing
package constructs as input.

Seems to argue in favor of a statically-linked dynamic language: The
runtime compiler can be static with install scripts being a bit more
malleable.
Main issue I can see with C is that most people today don't know how
to manage memory; not enou
