Compiles and links fine here --- but there's no way I can find to
convince the build process to produce _static_ executable, aside
from:
make
(cd clamd;gcc -Os -s -o clamd ... -static)
(cd sigtool;gcc -Os -s -o sigtool ... -static)
(cd clamdscan;gcc -Os -s -o clamdscan ... -static)
(cd freshclam;gcc -Os -s -o freshclam ... -static)
(cd clamscan;gcc -Os -s -o clamscan ... -static)
where the "..." was constructed by running make and cut-n-pasting
the lines libtool generated.
LDFLAGS=-static isn't honored, --disable-shared doesn't do it, even
CC='gcc -static' doesn't take. I've seen this before; seems to be
the price of doing libtool.

Thanks! That's a comfort to know.

Thanks, that's vastly simpler, and evidently the right fix. I should
know this stuff.
Thanks again,
