Err... it's Solaris' ld that doesn't like the switches -- prev. post gives URLs to some bug-requests/posts/explanations; basically boost wants to compile some libraries with -shared and -static switches, which works fine with GNU ld, but when GCC converts -shared and -static to what it thinks Solaris' ld wants, it ends up being a conflict, and it looks like the GCC team don't want to 'fix' it, they just want you to give the full path to a static lib, instead of using '-static
-l<blah>'
or just build the thing dynamically - iirc boost still tries to buildsome libraries as shared even if you ask it to build only static ones, yes, sucks..same for monotone later, just configure with --enable-shared (doesn'twork otherwise as pthreads and some other stuff doesn't exist as static libraries on solaris)
This is what I was thinking of trying. Thanks, I'll definitely have a go at this.
