(I dare to post to 2 MLs, I hope I'm not doing wrong...)

I'm playing with static build of extensions on Win32, and some strangeness 
comes when extension has some sub-extensions with their own Makefile.PL is 
subdirectory.

Say, an extension in './ext' subdir contains subdirs, and 
.....miniperl -I...... Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static
is called.

In this case a subroutine "eval_in_subdirs" is called, which results in ...

        do './Makefile.PL';

... in each of subdirectory.

All is fine to the moment, and even @ARGV is seen by the called Makefile.PL, 
because generated Makefile in subdirectory contains lines:

....
#   MakeMaker ARGV: (q[INSTALLDIRS=perl], q[PERL_CORE=1], q[LINKTYPE=static])
#

....

Argument LINKTYPE=static is what I am trying to achieve.

I am not successful, however, because some lines below in the same Makefile I 
see:

LINKTYPE = dynamic

Is this a bug?

Thanks in advance for any clarification.
Vadim.
