5820,SEARCHED_LIB targets always treated as shared by clang module,Ai Azuma <ai.azuma@…>,Vladimir Prus,"When using the clang module of Boost.Build,
SEARCHED_LIB targets specified by ""<link>static"" property does not work properly, and the targets are always treated as shared ones.

For example, when I write the following jamroot file,
{{{
# jamroot
lib gmp ;
exe test.exe : test.cpp gmp/<link>static ;
}}}

test.exe links against the shared version of gmp (libgmp.so).

{{{
$ bjam -a -d+2 toolset=clang
compile.c++.without-pth bin/clang-linux-3.0/debug/test.o

  ""clang++"" -c -x c++ -O0 -g -fno-inline -Wall -g -fPIC    -o ""bin/clang-linux-3.0/debug/test.o"" ""test.cpp""

clang-linux.link bin/clang-linux-3.0/debug/test

  ""clang++""    -o ""bin/clang-linux-3.0/debug/test"" ""bin/clang-linux-3.0/debug/test.o""   -lgmp -g 
}}}

The problem here is ""-l"" option does not follow any ""-Wl,-Bstatic"" flag.

Note that the gcc module works properly on the same jamroot, of course.
