  Hmm, then it didn't compile.

  Ok, then this would add a requirement to have GNU ld *if* you want
  to make the statically linked binary.  I can see you might not want
  that.  But right now, building a fully functional static binary is
  not working at all.  Again, my linker may be braindead, or something
  else could be missing on my system.  Do others get a static mplayer
  to build properly, with DPMS, DGA, etc. all inside?  If so, do you
  mind sending me your "ld -v" and your gcc "specs" file so I could
  fix my system?  Thanks for any help you can offer!

Be seeing you,
