That was the problem! In Mandrake you need a separate static devel package. Its curious that I was able to compile kernels, x.org, older levels of wine, etc. without it...
I am appending from Notes 6.5.1 running under today's CVS. I have another problem, but I will report that separately.

Do you have the static libc installed? It's called libc.a and should be a part of the developer packages.
thanks -mike

Static libc is only used rarely. We use it in Wine because, well, Wine is a rare sort of program :)
But seriously, there are very few technical reasons to make statically linked binaries usually, in fact it can even be dangerous unless you really know what you are doing (avoiding iconv/nss etc). We use one in Wine because there is no other way to achieve the effect we need.
