libcomedi hits some rather sensitive areas of glibc, so statically
linking anything causes binary sizes of about 300 kB. It shouldn't
be too hard to knock this down in some cases, i.e., changing a
sscanf() to strtol() dropped the average binary size of the demos
to 240 kB. Think I'll keep that change.
