Hello,

removing the bootstrap compiler only toasts the installed chicken-static 
and csi-static, not chicken and csi. And so far I have *never* had a 
reason to use csi-static or chicken-static. Generating a static executable 
works just as well using chicken as there should be no difference 
whatsoever between the output of chicken-static and chicken. Whether the 
resulting executable will be (able to be) linked statically or dynamically 
depends exclusively on the C compiler and linker flags.
