MCF5445x with LTIB - static linking

[DJP]

I am using LTIB (m54455_20071214-ltib-final.iso) and the target is MCF5445x.  Currently have an eval board that has a flash filing system complete with stdc/stdc++ shared objects.  I was looking into the options of creating a statically linked executable, so I put "-static" on the link line.  When attempting to run on the target I get illegal instruction.  If I remove "-static" it works ok.  I tried helloWorld and that didn't work either.

Anybody tried something similar?

thanks

This looks like a toolchain issue reported to codesourcery with -static

Here's the report to CodeSourcery:

Here is the the gcc bug on gcc's bugzilla:
