Sure.

I've added an option called DYNAMIC_ROOT_BINS.  When it is defined and
not NO, then /bin and /sbin, as represented by src/{sbin,bin}, will be
built shared.  I'll be committing it shortly.

Mike also suggested a NO_STATIC_LIBRARIES.  An idea I like, but will
leave unimplemented for a time.

Lots of other discussions that weren't on topic for my needs also
happened.  Much of it was interesting, but is left unsummarized here.
