Are you insinuating that my patch was not correct? :-) Come on, this
never happens to me!
If you look at 5ad2879a8bca386fa5c256a4286ccc928601cc1a, the purpose of
the patch was not really to fix *other* libraries linking against the
static version of attr, but rather fix the attr build process *itself*
which was crashing when BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB=y.
See
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/58a3d4113172813183d43fddc1248b35bd0c4994/build-end.log
That said, if other packages were still not able to link statically
against attr after that patch, then clearly it means that the patch was
not sufficient.
