static parted

[Oren Tirosh]

I wanted to run parted under a minimal environment without dynamic libraries 
and other support files (gconv, etc).  I believe this requirement is not 
unusual for a utility that is often used during installations.  Eventually I 
managed to do it by configuring without-this and disable-that and modifying 
the makefile to pass the -Bstatic parameter to ld.  It took a few tries, 
though.  It would be nice to have an option on the configure script to 
automatically create a completely static version.

Thanks for writing and maintaining this great program,
