Difficulty statically compiling netsnmp-5.7.3 for Solaris10 system with old version of libc

Hi,

We have some old Solaris systems that we need to monitor until we can virtualize them in a few months.  I can't install the opencsw version of netsnmp due to us being below update8 on Solaris8.  So I've been trying to compile a static version of netsnmp on a dev box so I can copy the binaries over.  Unfortunately I can't seem to get the flags right.  The wiki indicates that all is needed is the -Bstatic flag on configure.

During my attempts to troubleshoot I've tried to not use the Solaris binaries of make, ar or gcc via path and environment settings:

bash-3.00# echo $AR
gar
bash-3.00# echo $MAKE
gmake
bash-3.00# echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/opt/csw/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
bash-3.00#
bash-3.00# uname -a
SunOS p001solmgmt01 5.10 Generic_142909-17 sun4v sparc SUNW,T5140

I think we have issues right off the bat as my ./configure states that the gcc -static flag won't work and that it can't strip libraries.  I've also tried with -enable-static -disable-shared but didn't get different end results.  Although at that point the "build shared libraries" output does change to no.

bash-3.00# ./configure --with-ldflags=-Bstatic --with-sys-contact="[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" --with-sys-location="Earth" --with-logfile="/v
ar/log/snmpd.log" --with-persistent-directory="/var/net-snmp" --with-default-snmp-version="2"

checking whether stripping libraries is possible... no
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... yes

I did go all the way through the make;make test;make install steps.  The make succeeds and the test passes at 98%.  The make install creates a snmpd that is dynamically linked and not stripped.

Do you have any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
