Re: [Chicken-hackers] [PATCH] Fix #1347 and static linking when cross-compiling with customised target library name

[Evan Hanson]

Hi Peter,

This looks OK to me, and it tests fine on the platforms I've tried
(Solaris notwithstanding, but that's unrelated; see #1350).

Pushed.

Thanks, Peter.

That's basically right: we've never tested static linking on master.
Those tests were added during the work on code loading, in f0aafa06
(which is only in chicken-5, of course).

Probably, but I agree it isn't a high priority and I'm inclined to
ignore it until someone complains.

Cheers,

Evan
