I don't think it will happen very often since libc.so will always bring
in ld.so. If you don't build a DSO with -lc, I doubt you can dlopen it
from a static binary unless you don't make any calls to libc. I don't
think we should support building a DSO without -lc. It will also lead
to other problems. But it is always nice to check it.

Agreed. Here is a patch. Also I moved DL_STATIC_INIT to _dl_open.
Otherwise, dlopen in a static binary won't work.

	* elf/dl-libc.c (do_dlopen): Move DL_STATIC_INIT to ...
	* elf/dl-open.c (_dl_open): Here.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/dl-static.c (_dl_static_lock):
	Make it static.
	(_dl_static_init): Initialize the variables every time when
	possible.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/ldsodefs.h (DL_STATIC_INIT):
	Undefine it first.
