説明

A great question was posed in the comments to this article https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2016/10/static-compilation-with-stack, although it seems to have been left unanswered.

Mainly, if it could be possible to have a --static flag in stack, that would set the flags necessary for building a statically linked binary, and perhaps be aware of the crtbeginT and suggest/link to the proposed fix.

This issue https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1032 which is still open, seems to be somewhat related, but has been left without any activity (except for a few semi-related comments) for quite a while.

Any thoughts if it is even feasible to begin such work?

調査方針: Explore the linked issue #1032 and the referenced article to understand the current state of static compilation with Stack. Investigate the feasibility of adding a static flag by examining Stack's build command implementation, possibly in files like src/Stack/Build.hs. Review existing flags and how they affect linking. Check if any related PRs or discussions exist. Consider the complexity of incorporating crtbeginT handling.
