sorry for an urgent newbie question: how can I create a statically compiled version of a Haskell program on Linux with GHC that does not rely on external shared libs (also for any of its libraries it uses)?

I would like to build a binary that works on a 3-processor machine with an older Linux SMP kernel as well as RH9/FC2.

The GHC flag '-optl-static' is your friend. Note that it is still possible to end up with a binary that is kernel-version-dependent. Cheers, Simon
