Static linking would error out with something like

  bar.c:(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `socket_send'
at compile time. (edit: I mean static linking everything including third party libraries)

it was statically linked.

the issue was caused by another dynamically linked library referencing a different library at run time on a different linux distro than it was built on.

even says as much in the article.
