To reiterate:
ldd btrfs btrfsck
btrfs:
not a dynamic executable
btrfsck:
not a dynamic executable
du -sh btrfs btrfsck
2,4M btrfs
2,1M btrfsck
strip btrfs
strip btrfsck
du -sh btrfs btrfsck
1,1M btrfs
904K btrfsck
---
And now dynamic:
du -sh btrfs btrfsck
1,5M btrfs
1,3M btrfsck
strip btrfsck ; strip btrfs
du -sh btrfs btrfsck
232K btrfs
156K btrfsck
---
This means that dists are striping binaries...
In which case it would be no problem to have then build the static target,
perhaps we could try to verify if they are available and build btrfs.static
and btrfsck.static if possible....
(I'm using: 64 bit - gcc 4.7.2)
