Summary:                    Undefined references to _dl_app_fini_array and
_dl_app_init_array when trying to link statically with uclibc
Description: 
I get undefined references when I try to link a program statically to
uclibc:

$ cat test.c 
#include <stdio.h>

int main (void)
{
        printf ("Hello\n");
        return 0;
}

$ arm-linux-gcc test.c -o test -static
/usr/src/buildroot-20060308/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/3.4.5/../../../../arm-linux-uclibc/lib/libc.a(__uClibc_main.os):
In function `__GI___uClibc_fini':
__uClibc_main.c:(.text+0x13c): undefined reference to
`_dl_app_fini_array'
/usr/src/buildroot-20060308/build_arm/staging_dir/lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/3.4.5/../../../../arm-linux-uclibc/lib/libc.a(__uClibc_main.os):
In function `__uClibc_main':
__uClibc_main.c:(.text+0x2e0): undefined reference to

run gcc w/ -v and provide that output, your toolchain seems to work
incorrectly
_dl_app_*_array does not have to be in libc.a (only in libc.so) and
shouldn't
be used for static linking. readelf -s libc.a | more, search for
__uClibc_main
and see if _dl_app_*_array appear there (and see if __uClibc_main.os or
.oS was
added to the archive)
