You can get static linking in C/C++ with `gcc -static`.

  Sort of. On Linux, libstdc++ depends on the NSS system which dynamically loads libraries to implement things like getpwent(). Last time I had to actually make a portable static executable (admittedly some years ago) this was a real problem, and it was easier to statically link everything except libstdc++, then ship a copy which was loaded using RPATH in the linker settings.

    This is however a tooling issue, not a programming language one.

      And Go's tools have a great reputation. (Disclaimer: Not a Go programmer, just read articles about it.)
