Hm....I am now a bit rusty (again) on ELF stuff...but that's possible due to your program doesn't actually call any libc function or function defined on external libraries, thus nothing is really need to be dynamically linked. Maybe you can share your source code and the way you compile it, so we can analyze it? regards, Mulyadi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
