I didn't save the log so I'd have to rebuild to find out
(which I'll do asap), but IIRC it was similar to

$ gcc foo.c -all-static
gcc: error: unrecognized option â-all-staticâ

In case it matters, I used the newest available binutils,
(IIRC binutils-2.21.53 in ct-ng-1.13.2,  and now 2.22
with ct-ng from hg.
