--enable-static-nss is not a supported option.  If it's broken, feel free to fix
it, but don't file bugs about build issues.  Use the mailing lists.

I hope you are aware this is perfectly valid as .a do not contain interlibrary
dependencies. Would glibc distribute yet-to-implement libtool's .la files for it?

This bug report is a bit confusing because similar errors happen
when building glibc-2.3.5, and when building user apps.
The patch I posted fixes building glibc-2.3.5 itself.

Compiling user apps with this option might require
some more flags than the user is used to.  I had to add
  -Wl,--start-group -lc -lnss_files -lnss_dns -lresolv -Wl,--end-group 
to the gcc commandline to get a small test program to link -static.
I haven't figured out the options for g++ yet.

I saw this myself this morning building glibc-2.3.5.
It seems to be a missing hunk in elf/Makefile.
I have a patch that seems to solve it; I arrived at the
patch by mimicing similar stanzas in other subdirectories' Makefiles,
stealing an idea from Makeconfig, and tweaking Makeconfig slightly
so $(otherlibs) is obeyed when linking static apps.
I'll attach the patch.

Same problem with 2.3.4... again, *exactly* the same error messages. packages
will compile when linked against libraries using static nss routines; however
with 2.3.4, most packages fail when linked against those libraries.

Shadow-4.06 still compiles successfully with static NSS support.

Build system:
glibc-2.3.4
gcc-3.4.4
binutils 2.15.92.0.2
Slackware 10.1
Kernel 2.6.11.5 / 2.6.11.3
i686 architecture

Same problem here. Just about everything I attempt to compile with static NSS
glibc breaks during the build, with *exactly* the same error message described
above. Glibc-2.3.3 compiles without errors, however.

glibc version 2.3.3 (from ftp.gnu.org)
gcc version 3.3.4
Slackware 10.1
Kernel 2.6.11.5 / 2.6.11.3
i686 architecture

glibc-2.3.3 compiled with the following flags:
../glibc-2.3.3/configure --enable-add-ons=linuxthreads
--prefix=/usr/local/glibc-static-2.3.3 --enable-static-nss

Packages compiled with the above libraries use the following flags:
./configure --disable-nls (--disable-shared)

and

make LDFLAGS="(-static | -all-static) -L/usr/local/glibc-static-2.3.3/lib
-Wl,--start-group -lc -lnss_files -lnss_dns -lresolv -Wl,--end-group"

Have tried compiling with CFLAGS+="-static" and similar to no avail, as well
with --disable-shared with individual packages, which also did not work.

Of note is that shadow-4.06 successfully compiles with the library compiled as
above.

I believe this is not a Redhat bug, rather a bug in the C library which occurs
when using static NSS routines. I have seen reports of it from debian, red hat,
and slackware systems. I am compiling the de facto library from gnu.org.
