Hello:

Trying to linking a program as static with gcc I obtain an error due to libieee. I have reported the issue in the gcc mailing list and the answer was that the bug is probably from glibc. Here I paste the original mail to gcc list:

    Make _LIB_VERSION a weak symbol
    
    That way it can live alongside _LIB_VERSION in libieee.a for
    statically compiled programs.
    
    Resolves #14582.
