Comment(by Sebastian):
Thanks to Nick I have an easy patch here I believe. Also, it doesn't seem
like using -gfull changes anything, so we should just go ahead and use
dead-strip and be happy. That's good news, because it means we don't have
to mess with the libs we build. With no libs statically linked, that's a
3% win in binary size, with just libevent linked statically, this gives us
an advantage of 5% in terms of binary size, and with libevent and openssl
statically linked, we gain over 18% or over 500KB. If this works out OK,
this could be pretty neat I think.
