Normally BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB=y should give you a system with no
shared libraries, and everything linked statically. However, it is not
widely, so there might be issues, but we might be interested in fixing
them.

That said, it's probably quite difficult these days to build a system
for which the kernel+root filesystem fits within 1 MB, as your e-mail
topic seems to suggest.
