Hopefully this will come through a bit better. No clue why the formatting on
that last message was so bad. It looked good when I sent it.

Subject: Linking public: static const members in lib*.a's
From: STH
Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2004 01:27:05 -0400
Newsgroup: gnu.g++.help
Sorry about the big code dump. I tried to get it down to the minimum
required to demonstrate the problem. On the following I run
aclocal
autoheader
autoconf
automake -a -c --gnits
./configure
make
with the results shown at the end of the code listing. The problem seems to
be related to my using static const class members. Other similarly
configured programs work OK. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong
here?
