gcc/gnu getopt liks to reorder options and I cannot use -dynamic
nor -Bxxxxx. You have to use -Wl,-xxxxxx for the time being.

No. Use -Bstatic/-Bdynamic.

Try this one on top of binutils 2.5.2l.11. I have included this
in binutils 2.5.2l.12. You have to use:

# gcc -v foo.o -Wl,-Bstatic -lm -Wl,-Bdynamic 

Please let me know if it works for you. BTW, it may work with
the current snapshot.
