   Package: GNU binutils 2.0
   OS: Sunos 4.1.2
   Compiler: gcc 2.2.2

   After I strip a dynamically linked executable, ldd claims it is
   statically linked.  The executable still works, so it obviously is
   using the shared libraries.  What's going on?

BFD doesn't realize it can write a dynamic file.  Change strip to copy
the value of the dynamic flag from the input bfd to the output one.
