Well, in fact, it doesn't need dynamic library support, it's just that
libintl uses pthread functions, but the link command doesn't include
-lpthread.

This will only happen with the ARC external toolchain, because it uses
a uClibc version that predates the merging of all libraries into
libc.so in the uClibc-ng project.

Therefore, I'm not really thrilled by the solution that consists in
disabling fwup. I think I'd prefer to temporarily disable
BR2_STATIC_LIBS with this toolchain.

Best regards,

Thomas
