<div>AFAIK, the ABI isn’t stable, and therefore whenever a binary is compiled all of its dependencies must also be re-compiled.</div>

Whenever I update the installed Linux snapshot, my binaries break, with errors of the form:
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;" class="">
<div class="">[programname]: symbol lookup error: [programname]: undefined symbol: _TFOs7Processau9argumentsGSaSS_</div>
</blockquote>
<br class="">
<div class="">I assume this is the standard library symbol Process.arguments (which is used in my program).</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I guess this is because the standard library is not statically linked/embedded in this executable. This happens by default on OSX, but I guess might not on Linux.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>

<ul class="MailOutline">
<li class="">Is that a bug?</li><li class="">Is there a way to force statically link the standard library on Linux, so my binaries work without a recompile each new snapshot?</li></ul>
