YOU ROCK!

erecio(at)datacollector1:$ make
gcc -static -o testpg -L. testpg.o -lpq
./libpq.a(fe-auth.o): In function `pg_password_sendauth':
fe-auth.o(.text+0x148): undefined reference to `crypt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [pgconn] Error 1

-- after editing the makefile

$ make
gcc -static -o testpg -L. testpg.o -lpq -lcrypt
strip testpg && size testpg
text data bss dec hex filename

$ ldd testpg
not a dynamic executable

I've been away from C for too long... QT has pampered me and PHP has
