According to my reading, one of the subpatches threatened to disable the single static libs when the grouped one is built. If you are working with multiple DPDK apps, and one expects COMBINE_LIBS and the other does not, you can't use both with the same copy of DPDK anymore if that subpatch gets committed. Matthew.
