Isn't that a bit madness? If libmodsecurity has its copy of parts of
mbedtls, but didn't take care of renaming the symbols, then ultimately
what we should conclude is that using libmodsecurity in a statically
linked configuration is not supported.

So I would advocate for simplifying the whole thing and just make
libmodsecurity and its reverse dependencies depends on !BR2_STATIC_LIBS
and be done with it.

What do you think?

Best regards,

Thomas
