Subject: Howto build statically linked PHP CGI (without shared libs)
From: santi@usansolo.net

Dear Srs,

I'm trying to compile a statically linked, without shared libs, CGI version
of PHP, I've already tested with 5.2.6 and 5.2.7-dev.

Is there any option in ./configure to compile PHP with this feature?

Also I have tried passing CC and CFLAGS environment variables with
"-static" flags.. but the CGI builds using shared libs, example:

# file /tmp/php-cgi /tmp/php-cgi: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386,
version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared
libs), stripped

# ldd php-cgi | head
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00335000)
        libc-client.so.0 => /usr/lib/libc-client.so.0 (0xb7f38000)
        libexslt.so.0 => /usr/lib/libexslt.so.0 (0x00367000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x00323000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x002fe000)
        libaspell.so.15 => /usr/lib/libaspell.so.15 (0x00767000)
        libpspell.so.15 => /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15 (0xb7f36000)
        librt.so.1 => /lib/tls/librt.so.1 (0x006b2000)
        libmysqlclient.so.14 => /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.14
(0xb7dff000)
        libmcrypt.so.4 => /usr/lib/libmcrypt.so.4 (0xb7dce000)

How can I compile statically the CGI version of PHP? Thanks!! 

Regards,
