Greetings all, While playing around with 4.4-R, I finally did my first 'make world'. Even after running 'strip' on the resultant binaries, I was puzzled by their large sizes compared to -RELEASE. After investigating with 'ldd', it was pretty obvious that the binaries had been _statically_ linked. Easy enough to change by adding "-Xlinker -Bdynamic" to CFLAGS. However: Static linking for /bin and /sbin is obviously the sane choice, but I'd prefer dynamic linking for anything in /usr. Bug, feature, or just me cutting my teeth?
