Subject: STATIC_BUILD=YES for support module?

I added STATIC_BUILD=YES to my CONFIG_SITE for a support module, but the executable sizes did not change.

I was hoping to force the support module to statically link in another library that it needs, so that there would never be a run-time lib path problem.

Should I expect this to work, or is it an IOC-only option?
