Halfway through the article when he finds stat is the problem, I was surprised he didn't just solve it with a hastily coded LD_PRELOAD shim and move on with his day. I'm routinely working with Fortran that predates my birth. If I find a convenient inflection point to inject a trivial solution, that's usually much easier and safer than trying to debug the code and later discover that it makes use of a computed goto or a longjmp that would cause an insidious bug
> No, it doesn't. A static binary has no need to resolve any symbol dynamically, and therefore the dynamic loader is not invoked to resolve the usual library function symbols.
