Argh, what an annoying name for the tarball :-/

Could you add an entry with the hash of the license file ?

This should be:

DUMB_INIT_CFLAGS = $(TARGET_CFLAGS) -static

with a comment above it that explains why we are forcing -static.

However, using -static has a problem: what happens when you're doing a
BR2_SHARED_LIBS=y configuration, i.e when there is only support for
shared libraries, and not static libraries ? And BR2_SHARED_LIBS=y is
our default.

Best regards,

Thomas
