If the libraries in question were "shared" amongst other tools I could 
see a reason to keep them independent, but in this case going towards a 
unified executable which is portable only makes sense.  On platforms 
like Solaris -static isn't possible for the system libraries.  Solaris 
ld solved this in an intelligent middle ground with -Bdirect, but I 
don't  know if GNU ld has a similar option and I *really* doubt Windows 
does.
