Hello,

The static compile is due to the fact that in android there is 
replacment to the standard libc called "bionic". Since and i haven't yet 
managed to tell the CodeSourcery to link against bionic i linked all 
staticlly.
bionic is something i need to face for allowing the php to interact with 
the local apache and for allowing the php to be embeded into the android 
ndk framework. I guess there some extra patching will need for it.
