Summary: Drop STATIC_OPTS ON workaround eventually for MinGW/gfortran

Initial Comment:
The current status is our tests show this workaround is necessary for at least 
one distribution of MinGW/gfortran-4.5 (and probably the rest), but not 
necessary for at least one distribution of MinGW/gfortran-4.6 (but also 
probably the rest).  The SF version of MinGW/gfortran available at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Base/gcc/Version4 is the 
origin of all other distributions.  Thus, this bug report is a reminder to test 
that distribution roughly a year or so from now (late 2012) using the version 
(usually close to the latest) of MinGW/gfortran that is installed with the 
automatic MinGW/MSYS installer at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-inst.  If that 
distribution of MinGW/gfortran gives good results in all respects when the 
workaround is dropped (i.e., STATIC_OPTS OFF), then we should drop that 
workaround permanently from PLplot. My reasoning is by late 2012, the fix that 
makes the workaround no longer necessary should have propagated from the SF 
distribution of MinGW/gfortran to most other distributions of that software.
