True, but some of the changes we make require a reboot after they're made; it's
helpful to do that before the first reboot, so that the machine is ready for
work immediately. When you have 300 machines to kickstart, the extra reboot
time adds up fast. :) Thanks for the response, though!

The statically-built cfengine fixes the problem, though, so it's got to be an
errant library.

Is there a way to do a static build using configure flags? I didn't see
anything obvious, so I had to run configure as usual and then tweak the
Makefile to add '-static' to CFLAGS and change '-ldb' into '-ldb-4.2'.

cheers,
