Creating static libraries using gcc

Subject: Creating static libraries using gcc

Hi

I have a large number of related C++ source files which I want to combine
into a static library using gcc 2.95.3-5 with cygwin. Could anyone tell me
which linker options I need to specify to accomplish this ? I have tried to
link the object files using the -shared switch (although I suspect this
produces something similar to a Windows dll ?) and the object code links
cleanly. 

However, when I try to build an executable which requires linking with my
library I get the following error--
	collect2:ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]

Any help will be appreciated as I can't seem to find anything useful in the
documentation yet.

Thanks
Scott
