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)
