To the best of my knowledge, Apple's ld supports -static and -dynamic.
Man page for ld states that

     -dynamic    The default.  Implied by -dylib, -bundle, or -execute
     -static     Produces a mach-o file that does not use the dyld.
Only used building the kernel.

though trying to compile a sample hello world results in a not working
executable (segfaults) even if file reports it being a "Mach-O 64-bit
executable x86_64". So I'm not sure it's an option. Anyways I could
get past the point in my original email by not forcing libstdcxx to be
linked statically. Like Titus, I'm not really sure why we should
consider linking gcc statically against libstcxx (and at this point I
can say I chose that option with no knowledge about it, just because
it sounded nice :).

As for my newest error, Titus, that was the actual error. You can find
the build.log at http://www.morpheu5.net/build-20110626-0.log see if
you can spot something more than me.
