Description solar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-12 05:54:39 UTC 
The ebuilds exports LDFLAGS in a manner that overwrites any user 
defined settings. This breaks cross-compiling among other things that rely on passing -L${ROOT}/lib/path path options.

Offending code:
 useq static && LDFLAGS="-static"

Suggested solution:
 inherit flag-o-matic
 use static && append-ldflags -static

Fixed, among other things, in CVS. Thanks.
