Statically linking against GNU libc does not work well because there
is system functionality which absolutely requires dynamic linking
(name resolution, user/group database, and so on).
You could try to link only the LuaJIT library statically by switching
to static linking using "-Wl,-Bstatic" before it, and back to dynamic
linking after it using "-Wl,-Bdynamic". Not sure if this works. You
may have to look at the "ld" invocation printed by "gcc -v" to see
what's going wrong.
You also have to compile and link on a system which has the oldest GNU
libc version you want to support (or look very closely at the
referenced symbols).
