Description:
typing ./bash or ./bash --login causes a crash when bash is compiled static.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

compiled like this:
./configure --enable-static-link
make STATIC_LD='-Wl,-Bstatic' LOCAL_LIBS='-Wl,-Bdynamic -Wl,-R/etc/lib -ldl 
-Wl,-Bstatic'

tested with compilers: gcc-2.95.2, gcc-3.0, gcc-3.0.1 same problem occurs 
across all compilers

Repeat-By:
Just run the shell again and again and again....

Fix:
Use a different OS :(
