Hi *.                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                       
I have some trouble compiling 1.0pre3 statically on a Linux-system.                                                                                                                    
The following line was used to configure the build:                                                                                                                                    
./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --libdir=/usr/lib \                                                                                                                        
--datadir=/usr/share --mandir=/usr/man --enable-static --prefix=/usr \

--enable-runtime-cpudetection --disable-i18n                                                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                                                                                       
The resulting binary looks like it was linked statically, but isn't:

Upon running this binary I get:

XFree 4.3.99.902 was built statically and works just fine, as well as other

Unfortunately, I haven't found hints to compiling statically in the                                                                                                                    
documentation and both [ :) ] FAQs.                                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                                       
However there seem to be binary packages of mplayer 0.90-something available.                                                                                                          
Is statically linking broken at the moment or something?                                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                                       
I'm thankful for every hint!
