 The premise is wrong though...
 
 fly@planets ~> cat test.c
 #include <stdio.h>
 int main() {
 	printf("Hello World!\n");
 	return 0;
 }
 fly@planets ~> cc test.c -static -o static; cc test.c -o dynamic
 fly@planets ~> ls -lh dynamic static
 -rwxr-xr-x  1 fly  users  7.8K Nov 12 01:05 dynamic
 -rwxr-xr-x  1 fly  users  180K Nov 12 01:05 static
