[Buildroot] [PATCH] libfuse: not available for static builds

[Gustavo Zacarias]

Unfortunately libfuse uses dl functions exclusively so it can't be used
for static builds so exclude it so.
Fixes:

Huh, that build error is just because of the hardcoded target install
step (why don't we just use make install)?

Did you mean another build error?

Yes, but it leads to other errors if we avoid copying libfuse*.so
If you've just got libfuse.a in staging and fuse-using programs link/use
it it breaks anyway because libfuse hardcodes dlopen.
We'd just be translating the build failure to exfat, unionfs and so on...

I think we should apply this one. As Gustavo explained in a followup
email in this thread, libfuse doesn't support static link properly. The
build failure happened again today.

Thanks,

Thomas
