In GCC 2.2.2 on (for example) an IBM RT running 4.3BSD (configured as
`romp-aos') specifying the -static option produces a warning (although
it's not identified as such).

    $ gcc -v -static
    gcc: unrecognized option `-static'
    gcc version 2.2.2

The manual says:

`-static'
     ...  On other systems, this option has no effect.


I think GCC shouldn't issue the warning.
