Comment (by kelman):

 I've been building the Matlab interface (mex file, equivalent to a shared
 library) with static linking. And it looks like the AMPL executable and
 all the test executables from these builds are also statically linked to
 the GNU libs.

 Ah yes, I remember TDM-GCC causing an error with -static-libstdc++. TDM-
 GCC is actually set up to make that the default behavior at least with
 C++, so erroring is strange IMO. A few people have complained about it...

 I've never needed --host or --build.

 Where you need to put the flags depends on how you're interfacing to
 Ipopt. Are you making an executable or shared library that statically
 links to Ipopt? How does the Makefile / build system of your executable or
 library work? The dependence on the GNU libraries comes from that linking
 operation, probably not anything in Ipopt's build.
