I support this. It's a lot better than my idea. I did a deep dive with 'git
blame'
and after a look way back in time, this was added back when miniperl
was added to the cross tools as a "while I'm here" change stop building
the bootstrap shared and profile binaries (so it was an optimization). This
will increase the build time a bit since we build libraries twice now (both
static and shared).

But we don't normally build libraries when bootstrapping, though. Back
when this change was done, we built a lot during the bootstrapping.
But that's no longer the case. 12 -> 13 (or current) will build a couple
of libraries, so if they are built both shared and static the added time
will be, at best, negligible. From older upgrades, more is built, but
newer clang versions likely make it impossible to upgrade from
such versions (likely time to GC them... I'll take a look at doing
that).

P.S. Here's where it was added:

commit ad879ce9552cb94f4709c6e41a31a060d1c9c335
Author: Marcel Moolenaar <marcel@FreeBSD.org>
Date:   Mon Nov 20 02:17:34 2000 +0000

    Fix cross-building.

    o  Move building libperl and miniperl from build-tools to
       cross-tools. libperl uses MACHINE_ARCH to determine the
       right configuration, which doesn't match the build
       machine when cross-building if they are built as build-
       tools.
    o  Since miniperl needs to be built as a cross-tool, it
       needs to be installed under /usr/obj so that it can be
       used (cross-tools have a special object directory to
       avoid build conflicts. As a downside, you can't easily
       run cross-tools from their object directory). Remove
       the install and distribute override targets. To avoid
       having miniperl installed by installworld, remove it
       from SUBDIR.
    o  We can't pickup miniperl from the object directory but
       since it's installed, depend on PATH. This is save,
       because the makefiles are run with a known path.
    o  Build libperl again as part of the library target. A
       _libperl variable existed, but it was never defined.
    o  Add chmod to the list of saved tools, because perl
       conditionally uses it during install.

    The bootstrap-tools and cross-tools targets are modified to
    avoid building profiled and shared libraries. While here,
    have these targets build static binaries instead of shared
    binaries.
