I don't see any harm with including IUSE="static-libs" for every |
| 9 |
package that has working/usable static libraries[1]. Why wait for |
| 10 |
users to request it on bugzilla when it's a near-zero-cost and |
| 11 |
zero-maintenance to add it to ebuilds? |

1. An example of something with unusable static libraries: anything |
| 14 |
that links to libX11 (if I'm not wrong). |
