This is not a bug.

From the xlc man page:
        -B<prefix>
                  Construct alternate compiler/assembler/linkage editor
                  program names. <prefix> is added to the beginning of
                  the standard program names.

In fact, almost all compilers use -B in this way, so I don't know why he
did this.  Certainly, if "ld" takes this flag, which it doesn't
interpret in this way, you could not pass it through the C compiler
invocation.

I do not even think there is a "static" option... to compile something
statically, I believe you want:

	cc -Wl,-bnso,-bnodelcsect,-bI:/lib/syscalls.exp
