That *would* be nice... yeah, it would be nice if Apple's tools could
work the same as *all* of the other unices out there. Unfortunately,
that's not the case, since at least GNU libtool does *not* accept the
"-static" argument.
To be honest, if it weren't for the man page for libtool on Mac OS X
[1] dating all the way back to Snow Leopard saying that libtool is the
preferred tool on Mac for creating static archives, I'm left wondering
if this is just a massive oversight / bug in Apple's ld64.
