Most libs, but not all. glibc is one of them.
Anyway, I've added "--enable-static" to EXTRA_ECONF and it worked.
There are some packages that don't like it. In particular, sandbox
aborts in the configure phase with the message
"configure: error: dont be a Kumba, building a libsandbox.a is stupid"
:-)
I had to put an exception into /etc/portage/bashrc in order to handle
that.
Cheers,
Renat
