Also, it's different in the sense that official package builds and
package tomcrypt, but not tommath.

We did discuss sometimes ago why for universal binary package we have to use built-in tomcrypt. Data structures, passed In it's API, depend upon compilation flags. It's pretty easy to get an error in API call or even segfault due to it. Myself lost a lot of time when started to work with it and did not have correct defines when included tomcrypt.h. (At least it was so 5 years ago - may be fixed in fresh versions?)
With tommath there are no such issues...

  Why don't force build with static libs?


In what way it's better than own dynamic libraries?
