           Summary: --disable-shared disables too much
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.2.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libstdc++
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: bim2003 at basistech dot com
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
 GCC build triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.8
  GCC host triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.8
GCC target triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.8

My goal is to build a copy of gcc where (a) there are no shared libs produced 
for libstdc++ (or other) components, but (b) it is possible to use the results 
to build shared libraries. This requires the production of a libstdc++.a that 
is compiled PIC on solaris. --disable-shared resulted in a libstdc++ that is 
not compiled pic, and so can't be linked with a shared lib.

If I've missed something in the configure doc that explains how to accomplish 
this, I apologize.
