static libs are never used when there are static and dynamic libs
available (and linking with -l). If they are used accidentally it is 
a bug. I have never seen this happen.

I agree that it is usefull but not for the reason mentionned above, as 
shared libs are used, but because it reduces the size of the devel packages 
and it seems to me that it is the most important interest of excluding 
static library.
