Is it me, or is this officially getting silly?  This probably happens
for *every* binary in the sysroot that links to a library, which is
probably a fair proportion of them.  Statically linking every single
one and then special-casing further problems where a static link isn't
sufficient (see pythonnative) just isn't going to scale.
