+Subject: [PATCH] Prefer ext static libs when --default-library=static
+
+This patch adds a case in the library pattern logic to prefer static
+libraries when the Meson Core option for "default_library" is set to
+solely static.
+
+The existing library search order makes sense for cases of shared and
+shared / static mixed. However if using a prebuilt cross-toolchain,
+they usually provide both a static and shared version of sysroot
+libraries. This presents a problem in a complete static build where
+there won't be shared libraries at runtime and during build time there
+are failures like "ld: attempted static link of dynamic object".
