building haproxy with USE_STATIC_PCRE

Hi folks,

I just compiled haproxy 1.3.15.6 on a Debian machine using following make call:
------------------snip--------------------
make PREFIX=/usr \

     TARGET=linux26 \
     CPU=i686 \
     USE_PCRE=1 USE_STATIC_PCRE=1 \
     USE_REGPARM=1


------------------snip--------------------

but when I run 'ldd haproxy' it seems to me that the USE_STATIC_PCRE=1 has no effect at all because haproxy is obviously linked against the shared libpcre.

---------------------------------snip----------------------------------
# ldd haproxy

	linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
	libpcreposix.so.3 => /usr/lib/libpcreposix.so.3 (0xb7f65000)
	libpcre.so.3 => /usr/lib/libpcre.so.3 (0xb7f3f000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7e0c000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f6d000)


---------------------------------snip----------------------------------

I verified it by building on a non-debian machine and the same issue shows up too.

gcc version on debian etch:

---------------------------------snip----------------------------------

What I find interesting is that on the debilian machine 'nm' shows unresolved symbols:
---------------------------------snip----------------------------------
# nm haproxy | grep pcre

         U pcreposix_regcomp
         U pcreposix_regexec
         U pcreposix_regfree


---------------------------------snip----------------------------------

but no traces of pcre at all while doing the same on my local workstation.

For any kind of hint that enlightens that issue I'd be extremely thankful ;)

Have a nice day!
