[rhelv6-list] static linking and glibc

Hi,

I seem to be able to reproduce in RHEL 6 the bug reported in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=597578 .  I have 
glibc-static 2.12-1.25.el6_1.3 installed.

Before I open a bugzilla report on this, I just want to check the wisdom 
of the community on whether it really is a bug, or whether it's just an 
expected manifestation of the "don't static link with glibc" model (a la 
http://people.redhat.com/drepper/no_static_linking.html .)

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Peter Ruprecht
