Re: how to distribute binary tools

["Eric Fisher" <joefoxreal at gmail dot com>]

Well. It's because of libtool and binutil's Makefile. I don't know
which env flag should be overided, but just use

make AM_LDFLAGS="-all-static"

to append the flag '-all-static' after libtool --mode=link command.
I'll try on gcc next.

Thanks
