src_configure() {
    use static && append-ldflags -Xcompiler -static

I wonder what compiler accepts "-Xcompiler ..."

Libtool does understand -Xcompiler for pass-though mode.

    net-vpn/openvpn: drop broken USE=static flag, bug #704100
    
    '-Xcompiler -static' is understood by libtool, but not gcc directly.
    That makes 'append-ldflags -Xcompiler -static' call always fail ./configure
    as:
    
    ```
    configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
    See `config.log' for more details
    ```
