Static linking is not supported on Mac OS X. See the documentation for
-static in gcc(1):

-static
    On systems that support dynamic linking, this preve

nts linking with
    the shared libraries.  On other systems, this option has no effect.

    This option will not work on Mac OS X unless all libraries
    (including libgcc.a) have also been compiled with -static.  Since
    neither a static version of libSystem.dylib nor crt0.o are
    provided, this option is not useful to most people.
