Hi

Thanks for the patch.

I've pushed to upstream, but it's worth to note - static linking is currently 
not really supported - for many packages it's getting a bit complex to do 
linking right.

So for a very limited 'subset' of linked libs this may work, but ATM we
cannot really provide static linking for all combination of options.

I assume however you just need 'static'  dmsetup right ?
