Compile as static

[tjue1 at sussex.ac.uk]

Hello List

Has anyone had any luck with this? Im trying to compile python 2.4.2 on
Slackware 10.1 into one large executable. One which contains everything
required to run python (as static). So python doesn't look for
dynamically shared objects like libpthread.so.0.

I have tried ./configure --disable-dynamic
                         --enable-dynamic=NO
                         --enable-static

However the executable size is always the same :/ Please assist.

Thank You

Matt
