Description of problem:
Static linking to libpvm3 fails due to undefined references to xdr_int, xdr_u_int, xdr_double, xdr_float, etc.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pvm-3.4.5-15.fc15.x86_64
glibc-static-2.14-4.x86_64


How reproducible:
Always.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create the following program pvmlinkfail.c:

#include <pvm3.h>
int main(void) { pvm_mytid(); return 0; }

2. Compile and link it

gcc -I/usr/share/pvm3/include -L/usr/share/pvm3/lib/LINUXX86_64 -o pvmlinkfail pvmlinkfail.c -lpvm3 -static

Expected results:
Linking succeeds.


Additional info:
This is a regression, it works in Fedora 14.

Only static linking fails; it works without -static.  It seems that static version of glibc does not provide the xdr_* symbols while the dynamic does.
