Please note this is a blind fix. I cannot reproduce the build errors,
which all happen on the same build node, and I cannot verify that
the patch does in fact fix them. 

It's probably still a good idea to avoid unnecessary static linking
in a host package.

+The package attempts to build a statically-linked host binary, futility_s,
+which is not used anywhere in buildroot but may be causing build failures
+if the build host lacks static libc.
