Well, for packages that do build on noMMU platforms, we do catch such issues thanks to the bfin-uclinux toolchain configuration that is used on the autobuilders. But for those other packages that don't build on noMMU, we indeed don't check properly if we're able to do a pure static build. Alexey has sent a patch to remove HAVE_SHARED from the uClibc configuration when BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB is enabled. Maybe this will get rid of ld.so, libdl and so on? I haven't tested yet.
