Hmm.  Thanks; yep this does build static too.  I bet my RPM does actually,
it probably just doesn't package them.

Strangely for ./config said this:

checking if the linker (/usr/bin/ld) is GNU ld... yes
checking whether the linker (/usr/bin/ld) supports shared libraries... yes
checking command to parse /usr/bin/nm -B output... ok
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
checking for /usr/bin/ld option to reload object files... -r
checking dynamic linker characteristics... Linux ld.so
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... yes

So... why is it that lazarus/ppc386 can't do shared libraries?  Is it just
that it can't, or I have to do some magic alteration?  Or I have to wait for
some later makefiles?

Thanks
