It is not a toolchain problem, it is more likely a change in
toolchain behaviour with uClibc-ng >= 1.0.18.
We can not avoid the circular dependency between libc and libgcc, so
every static compiled package must use -static while linking.

In this case it is similar to autossh a package level problem.
All the libtool packages are working out-of-the box in buildroot with
-static, because LIBTOOL_PATCH_HOOK patches libtool to behave like
-all-static.
In this case the hook isn't working correctly, because ltmain.sh
isn't found:

for i in `find /home/wbx/buildroot/output/build/berkeleydb-5.3.28/build_unix -name

2; then patch -i support/libtool/buildroot-libtool-v2.4.4.patch
${i}; else patch -i support/libtool/buildroot-libtool-v2.4.patch

The hook searches in
/home/wbx/buildroot/output/build/berkeleydb-5.3.28/build_unix, but
it seems berkeley db provides ltmain.sh in
/home/wbx/buildroot/output/build/berkeleydb-5.3.28/dist/.
