    compiling...
    ld: 0706-003 Cannot find or read import file: /lib/syscalls.exp
    ld:accessx(): No such file or directory
    collect2: ld returned 255 exit status

    I read from one resource that I'm missing bos.adt.syscalls package which contains syscalls.exp:

    $ lslpp -l bos.adt.syscalls
    lslpp: Fileset bos.adt.syscalls not installed.

    Is that correct? Will installing that package enable static linking on this box?

    $ oslevel -s

    Thanks.
