 output/usr/host/bin contains executables for the host. These are linked
dynamically and have an rpath setting to make sure the correct libraries are
found in output/usr/host/lib.

 The executables on the target (output/target and output/images) should be
statically linked.

 There is no way in buildroot to link the host binaries statically.
