Yes, but we reverted this change. Now we're back to using -static
instead of --static. And we've patched libtool so that -static is
actually understood as -all-static. See commits
8d764327a697a2572bba96878972c1a469f864f3 and
5d66a9b1fb67cf009fe4f15028c02a8386109dc5, as well as

Yes, before sending patches, please test them on top of the latest
master. Patches against 2014.02 are generally a bit useless, due to the
fairly high rate of changes occurring these days in Buildroot.
Thanks!
