    ^^^ what gcc is this?

If it is not gcc 2.95.4 CVS, gcc-2.96-RH of recent vintage, gcc-3_0-branch
of recent vintage or recent gcc CVS head, then it will not work as you
describe on ia32. The issue is that those gcc's referenced atexit (as
workaround for some libc 5 bugs I think) in crtendS.o (and as this is
always after -lc, atexit.oS from libc_nonshared.a simply was not brought
in).
I'd say it is a user bug not to use one of the above compilers with
glibc 2.2.3.
