Statically Link Everything For Linux Use

I am trying to get ST2 up and running on RHEL5 64bit for work. I managed to resolve some other library conflicts, but the glibc-2.11 can't really be worked around. If I update that in my environment the most likely (as other people got this result) outcome is that I have to setup my environment again because taking such actions will break it. This could easily be resolved by not having ST2 dynamically linked and instead go with a statically linked release for those who need it.
