Well, I actually asked Steve to write patches that can be submitted
upstream (leveldb upstream is active) rather than solving all problems
in the Buildroot .mk file.

Aaah, yes, indeed. When passed in the environment, a normal += work,
and you don't need the override.

Well I actually asked for the opposite, in order to use positive logic,
i.e test BR2_SHARED_LIBS==y.

Or not, depending on whether we want the patch to be upstreamed.
