An alternative (or an addition) to the -static packaging would be to

Something like this (but without the mailer induced linewrapping)?

Right :)

and I would prefer to have debug symbols in there. you can always strip them
out of the final binary but you can not add them when they are gone.
Installing foo-dbg doesn't work?
The last bit is that I would like to put /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a into the
libc-dev package
Glibc has its own custom packaging, which we'll probably need to tweaks
as well.
Anyways, I'll start accumulating patches in
http://dominion.thruhere.net/git/cgit.cgi/openembedded/log/?h=koen/static-libs-rework
and change those to work in all your comments.
