Static Build

I keep hearing that a static version of pgAdmin3 is desired, so I
thought that I would just squash the thought before it gets to far.  It
would be next to impossible to release a static version of pgAdmin3
because of the large number of dependencies of the program.  Keep in
mind, that just because we link against a static version of the
wxWindows library, doesn't mean that we aren't using shared symbols.  We
would also need static versions of glibc, PostgreSQL, and any libraries
against which any of those programs link.  We  would need to be able to
pull in static code for *every* library that our program touches, or any
library that a library our program touches touches.  I think statically
linking against wxWindows is a good idea, since it is not likely to be
available on client machines, but to statically link against something
like the GNU C Library is just an unnecessary headache, since it's not
unreasonable to require a client to have that library installed (every
other program on the machine requires it too!).  Just my 2 cents.
