[Pam-developers] linux-pam and static linking?

Hi, I tried to compile Linux-PAM today with "--enable-static-modules". It's a nightmare :( Some problems are easy fixable, but we have a structural problem: I get a verlong long list of "multiple definition of" errors. Every module compiled static provides the same function names: pam_sm_open_session, pam_sm_close_session, etc. Looks like current toolchain does not like this. The question now is: should we really try to fix that, or should we remove the --enable-static-modules option and the code for this? I would vote for removal, I don't see any sense in this option anymore. Beside, that I doubt that it will really work, if it does not even compile ...
