This can't be done without some other addition - unless you make it a  
'side effect' of -static-libgfortran or -static-libgcc
Personally, I think that's a bit icky ... it's better to be specific.

If a global "static-libgomp" is deemed a Good Idea then it would be easy

In the meantime - I'm working on a patch that introduces
"-mstatic-runtimes" as a darwin-only addition.  (leaving libgcc_s. 
10.x as shared, unless -static-libgcc is specified).

Of course, that might not be philosophically acceptable ..
.. and one needs to be very careful about using it if one is building  
code that also uses system frameworks.

cheers,
