Static linking under OSX

[nickgian]

Using OSX 10.8.3 with GCC 4.7.

I created a simply library using GCC, static linking with a C program works.

$ ocamlfind ocamlopt -cclib '-L. -lhello-static' -linkpkg -package ctypes.foreign demo.cmx -o demo.native 
$ ./demo.native
$ Fatal error: exception Dl.DL_error("dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, res): symbol not found")

I've seen some other issues with static linking here but most workarounds are linux-only as far as I can tell, or at least my linker doesn't support the proposed arguments.

Dynamic linking works fine.

Also I can't follow Daniel's solution as I do not have the dylib file of the library which seems to be required in order to see which other libraries the lib links to.

I'm facing this issue as well.
