(sorry if you get this twice, but the email kept getting 'deffered'
because of a bad hello or something last night)
I try to statically link the testpq.c program via:
gcc -o testpq -lpq -static testpq.c
and get the following error:
[erecio@moz postgres]$ gcc -o testpq -static -lpq testpq.c
/tmp/ccIp5I09.o: In function `exit_nicely':
/tmp/ccIp5I09.o(.text+0xd): undefined reference to `PQfinish'

While dynamically linking it works fine:
$ gcc -o testpq -lpq testpq.c
$ ldd testpq libpq.so.2 => /usr/lib/libpq.so.2 (0x4002c000) libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6

libpq.a is in /usr/lib, but it's only about 93k. For the object files
that seems alot. I need to statically link the library because I am
going to be using a custom program in an embedded device where none of
the above libraries mentioned in the ldd works. All the the programs
statically link fine, except for libpq. I am using the redhat 7.3 rpms.
