I should have read both your emails before proceeding.
ldd naim - no such file or directory (which I think means it uses some 
dynamic library not on my path).

I already packaged the dynamic version.  I could start over properly but I 
don't know what to add to your above instructions so will do try as 
described below.

Could people use the dynamic version by simply copying over all the 
libraries from /uclibc/lib to /lib?  864K.  Then the uclibc programs could 
all be compiled dynamically (mplayer, busybox, netpbm, etc.).

I tried but it is a 3-line command and it could not find naimS.

gcc -g -O2 naim ./libs/naimS.o ( and a long list of other files in .o all 
in ./src) -Wl, --export-dynamic ../libfiretalk/libfiretalk.a (and two 
others in .a) -lncurses "-static"  (I added the static).

Gcc may have deleted temporary files (there is a switch not to do that for 
gcc).  naimS.o is not there, the others are.

What is the proper command to make statically in the first place? The 
computer might boot one more time. Busybox compiled statically by default, 
I think.

10 pm, more tomorrow evening.  We may try a different power supply after 
replugging everything, then a different computer.
