I'd like to skip the build of the static version of our libraries to speed up our builds and save on disk space, but I don't see any way to do that via directives in the Makefiles. I didn't see anything in bsd.lib.mk which would indicate this can be done. Is this even possible? (I am not subscribed to -questions, so please cc: me on responses). Thanks, matthew
