| What more would you like me to say? Static linking doesn't affect the
| demangler issues, so I felt this discussion is getting off-topic.
Some people have been complaining that they don't want a demangler
depending on libstdc++.so at runtime. If the dependency on
libstdc++.so at runtime time is the issue, then I do not agree with
your statment above. Or else, the issue is not the dependency on
libstdc++.so at runtime.
