These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

USE=static is respected just fine, that isnt the issue here

didnt mean to close ...

fixed in cvs now

Oh, now I'm quite confused. As far as I understand the problem is that mdadm
rebuilds it during its installation process. This compilation is no longer
controlled by the ebuild and therefore it can't honor the ssl and static flags,
right?

Reading your comments, I understand everything is fixed now and I don't need to
offer any more informations, true? :-)

correct

sync up and 2.5+ should work fine for any ssl/static combo

Great! Thank you very much, SpanKY.
