Even that is not enough, since you have to trigger the reading somehow.
LD is not clever enough to read libraries for available linker sets
automatically. I was thinking about adding the necessary magic to bsd.prog.mk
(like STATIC_CITRUS = no | all | list of modules) and do the magic based on
that.
