Yes, on those packages that use pkg-config, I wish that they would support static libs a bit better. I also with that libtool did the same a bit better for static, and not just assume dynamic libs. It could be easily specified in the .la files they make.
Gc is one of the libs that I try to statically link, along with the c++ libs, because of the tribulations we have had with it in the past.
Yes, I do the same thing for the same reasons :/ I think I will try and write a patch that adds --as-needed on systems that support that. This way it should work right for both dynamic and static libs.
