This can then cause stdlibc/stdlibc++ to fail to initialise and be more dificult to resolve. The GCC man page strongly recomends NOT to statically link these std libs. Which are the ones that you are having issue with.

I was afraid there might be some sort of issue like that

I think the best option is to install a 2yr old distro for building. That way most (if not all) systems will have a later set of libs that are backward compatible. I just need to resolve a troublesome lib that wont link on older systems.

Good to hear that it is being worked on though. Is this timeline for this something like OOTP 10 or is there a goal to have this happening for 9 as well?

Ah yes, the joys of c/linux/linking etc. I'm glad I don't have to work with issues like that every day.
Thanks for looking into this and good to hear it's being worked on, and good that there's a linux build for OOTP now
