This question is very trivially answered by just checking any UNIX system rather than asking thousands of people to debate the topic. There is no such thing as a "purely statically linked executable" on Windows anyway. It's not possible to create a program which does not use a DLL or at least it's not possible to create a useful program. cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
