Hrmm.. Interestingly enough it is not working with a --statoc. or
-bdynamic but perhaps I have larger issue with my compiler..

What I was going to do was put together all the libraries I want it to use
on the devel box, and static it, that way on every machine I run this on
i'm using all the same libraries regardless of whats in the library path..

Kind of a strange application but I think it will save frustrationin the
long run when library xxx.so doesn't exist, or doesn't have a syscall that
it did on another machine..
