In Buildroot we have the need to support also static only libraries cause we have targets that doesn't support dynamic libraries (like cortex M4 for which I'm fixing this bug). The option for static only is also present for various other architectures as a build option. So, if this cannot be fixed upstream, I'll push a patch only on the Buildroot side.
