Thanks Paolo. That's a nice feature to have. I.E. statically link the lib when not present on the system. It would be useful when one wanted to build a standalone sed for example on older or non linux systems, with the caveat that the binary would be a fair bit larger. I don't think we'll use this in coreutils for example due to the extra memory each util would use. cheers, Pádraig.
