Since default configure options for host packages include
--disable-static, gcc was not configured to build static version of its
libraries (libgcc.a, libstdc++.a, ...).

This patch replace --disable-static by --enable-static in configure
command. Notice some options was removed sinces they was ignored by gcc
configure script.

Once it was compiled, this commit takes care to copy static libraries to
$STAGING

Why aren't you simply doing:

HOST_GCC_FINAL_CONF_OPT += \
	--enable-shared --enable-static

instead ?

Thanks,

It was the first thing I tried. In this case, ./configure is called with 
--enable-shared --disable-static --enable-static.

We can think --enable-static will overload --disable-static.

config.status correctly contains enable_static=yes, but libstdc++.la 
does not contains any reference to libstdc++.a and libstdc++.a is not 
installed. I surely missed something.

Whatever the case, if ./configure is called without --disable-static, it 
works.

I'm a bit confused, the toolchains I have here definitely do have
libgcc.a :

$ find . -name 'libgcc.a'
./host/usr/lib/gcc/sh4-buildroot-linux-uclibc/4.7.3/libgcc.a

What practical issue are you seeing?

Thanks!

Sorry, in contrary of what I wrote in my commit message, this does not 
impact libgcc.a. However, it impacts libstdc++.a, libgomp.a, 
libmudflap*.a, ...

> What practical issue are you seeing?
My main concern is libstdc++.a.

Ah, ok. I'll retry then and see what happens :)
