BR2_STATIC_LIBS is added only on one out of 20 configurations, so the
math here is not correct I believe: the last "divide by 20" would mean
that BR2_STATIC_LIBS disabled is one every 20 builds, but it's the
opposite.

Or is my math failing ?

Most of them have BR2_USE_WCHAR.

The BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_CREATION_DYNAMIC_EUDEV condition is already
mutually exclusive with BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD, due to the "elif". However,
it is also mutually exclusive with Busybox, which is a bit silly.
