Description
After I successfully compiled a test python program using `codon build `, on macOS Monterey (intel), I checked the dependencies as per the following:
```bash
$ otool -L demo
demo:
@rpath/libcodonrt.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
@rpath/libomp.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1319.0.0)
/usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.11)
```
The two `@rpath` dependencies, `libcodonrt.dylib` and `libomp.dylib` are included in the `codon` distribution, they are 1.2M and 772K respectively so not so large.
Is there any thought to having static libraries of these two dependencies available so one may statically compile the executable instead to make it more relocatable?
