since this flag was explicitly removed in pushbuild for GCOV builds.
BUILD_CMD => ['sh', '-c', 'perl -i.bak -pe "s/ \\\\\$static_link//" ' .
'BUILD/compile-pentium-gcov; BUILD/compile-pentium-gcov'],
Moving $static_link to SETUP.sh broke this, and is now fixed.
Should this flag be needed on some platforms,
the proper location is compile-<platform>-gcov
Tested the amd64 and pentium64 build fine without it, and can run NDB tests.
BUILD/SETUP.sh:
Removed $static_link from GCOV builds.
