Yes, the -static versions of chicken and csi that are built during
installation are static in the sense that they don't depend on the
chicken runtime libraries.

I take it you are trying to build a completely static version of the
compiler to move it do a different linux system, yes?

Here is what works on my SuSe system. Since you have an older
Chicken version, some object files are probably not needed. Execute
the following in your chicken build directory:

$ gcc -static -o my-chicken-static chicken.o support.o batch-driver.o
partition.o c-backend.o c-platform.o compiler.o optimizer.o easyffi.o
.libs/libchicken.a .libs/libstuffed-chicken.a .libs/libsrfi-chicken.a
-lm -lpcre
