Thanks. Where did you see Debian using it? Looking at
E.G. 
http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dropbear/dropbear_2016.73-1.debian.tar.xz
I see they configure with --enable-bundled-libtom.

Checking here, a static build with external libtom* is unfortunately 25%
bigger (75K). Is that to be expected?

Yes, indeed - Thanks.
