BTW, i remembered that there's indeed a bug in xetex's configure or
Makefile rules. e.g. on solaris, the link command is:

CC -o xetex xetexini.o xetex0.o xetex1.o xetex2.o xetexextra.o trans.o XeTeX_ext.o xetex_pool.o XeTeXFontMgr_FC.o synctex-xe.o mfileio.o numbers.o pdfimage.o bmpimage.o jpegimage.o pngimage.o XeTeX_pic.o XeTeXFontMgr.o XeTeXLayoutInterface.o XeTeXOTLayoutEngine.o XeTeXFontInst.o cmaps.o FontTableCache.o XeTeXOTMath.o XeTeXGrLayout.o XeTeXFontInst_FT2.o -D_REENTRANT  -L/opt/csw/lib -lsocket ../../libs/icu-xetex/lib/libsicuuc.a ../../libs/icu-xetex/lib/libsicule.a ../../libs/icu-xetex/lib/libsicudata.a ../../libs/teckit/lib/.libs/libTECkit.a ../../libs/freetype2/.libs/libfreetype.a ../../libs/graphite-engine/src/.libs/libgraphite.a ../../libs/zlib/libz.a ../../libs/xpdf/xpdf/libxpdf.a ../../libs/xpdf/goo/libGoo.a ../../libs/xpdf/fofi/libfofi.a ../../libs/libpng/libpng.a /opt/csw/lib/libfontconfig.so /opt/csw/lib/libiconv.so /opt/csw/lib/libfreetype.so -lz /opt/csw/lib/libexpat.so lib/lib.a ../kpathsea/.libs/libkpathsea.a -lm -lpthread -R/opt/csw/lib -R/opt/csw/lib

which needlessly pulls in

/opt/csw/lib/libfreetype.so
/opt/csw/lib/libiconv.so
/opt/csw/lib/libexpat.so

and also -lz in addition to ../../libs/zlib/libz.a, and -lpthread.

making them direct dependencies.

the link command succeeeds if i remove these 3 .so libs, and -lz
-lpthread and leave only /opt/csw/lib/libfontconfig.so:

CC -o xetex xetexini.o xetex0.o xetex1.o xetex2.o xetexextra.o trans.o XeTeX_ext.o xetex_pool.o XeTeXFontMgr_FC.o synctex-xe.o mfileio.o numbers.o pdfimage.o bmpimage.o jpegimage.o pngimage.o XeTeX_pic.o XeTeXFontMgr.o XeTeXLayoutInterface.o XeTeXOTLayoutEngine.o XeTeXFontInst.o cmaps.o FontTableCache.o XeTeXOTMath.o XeTeXGrLayout.o XeTeXFontInst_FT2.o -D_REENTRANT  -L/opt/csw/lib -lsocket ../../libs/icu-xetex/lib/libsicuuc.a ../../libs/icu-xetex/lib/libsicule.a ../../libs/icu-xetex/lib/libsicudata.a ../../libs/teckit/lib/.libs/libTECkit.a ../../libs/freetype2/.libs/libfreetype.a ../../libs/graphite-engine/src/.libs/libgraphite.a ../../libs/zlib/libz.a ../../libs/xpdf/xpdf/libxpdf.a ../../libs/xpdf/goo/libGoo.a ../../libs/xpdf/fofi/libfofi.a ../../libs/libpng/libpng.a /opt/csw/lib/libfontconfig.so lib/lib.a ../kpathsea/.libs/libkpathsea.a -lm -R/opt/csw/lib -R/opt/csw/lib

Best,
