Well, one thing would be to make sorcery use this one, I guess. The
other one is that we realized that it is not enough to have static
bash, stuff commonly used in the bash scripts, like awk, also need to
be present. But yes, at least on my system, /bin/bash.static still
exists (symlink to /sbin/bash.static), the unstripped binary is 7.4 M
against 2.5 M for the shared one. After stripping, it's 1.6 M against
703 K.


Alrighty then,
