On aix 5.3 using gcc version 4.2.4 I get the following output from ldd.
What causes libgcc_s.a to be part of the binary?

Or better, how can i prevent libgcc_s.a to be part of the binary? I've tried rebuilding gcc using configure -disable-shared to no avail.


Thanks,
ken

Ok,

I figured the problem out and thought I'd post my resolution so maybe it will help others.

rebuild GCC using -disable-shared.
Rebuild all libraries that were being linked that were built with the old version of gcc.
