Thanks Vladimir and David,

I tried "-static" without "-static-libgcc" and "-Wl,-Bstatic" and it worked fine.

My test sample that uses program option and single threaded works fine with the above change.

But my other application that is multi threaded (using boost thread API) and uses program option still segfaults. When I try to add "libpthread" and "-lboost_thread-gcc41-mt" in linking I start getting segfaults.

LDFLAGS= -static -L/u/neetug/Projects/performance/perfstat_cluster/lib -lpthread -lboost_program_options-gcc41-mt -lboost_filesystem-gcc41-mt -lboost_system-gcc41-mt -lboost_thread-gcc41-mt -lrt

Appreciate you help

Regards,
NG

This is not the best way to link statically. Did you try just -static
option, without -static-libgcc and -Wl,-Bstatic?

Or you could try: -l:libboost_program_options-gcc41-
