 Synopsis: -static / -shared not equivalent to -Wl,-Bshared / -Wl,-Bdynamic under linux with GNU ld
 
 State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
 State-Changed-By: jsm28
 State-Changed-When: Sat May 19 17:15:05 2001
 State-Changed-Why:
     The meanings of -static and -shared are documented in the
     manual.  -shared means to create a shared library; -static
     means to link statically.  So, to achieve the effect you
     want, you should continue to use -Wl,-Bstatic and -Wl,-Bdynamic -
     -static and -shared aren't intended to be equivalent to
     these positional options.
