Thanks Meng. I used ldd on my program. The library libstdc++.so.5 is still listed. I also added the LD_OPTIONS = -Bstatic. This caused problems with the library gcc_s. The linker is looking for libgcc_s.a, but not finding it. Even if I put a -Bdynamic in front of it or list libgcc_s.so.1 explicitly on the compile line it still looks for the static version. Since Solaris is going away from static linking anyway I am going to give up on this problem. Thank you for all of your help.

The problem is that > it did not link statically. Can you try ldd "your program" to see what libraries are linked. I wondered why it wasn't link statically if you have -static option. I guess the static link would require *.a library. This might not be a gcc issue. > > Is there something in gcc that could change the link defaults?
