DirectFB Fails with --enable-static option because of incorrect ld location

Hi,

Today i was trying to make arm926ejs toolchain with buildroot 4th feb snapshot. I added --enable-static option in directfb.mk file. During build i noticed that directfb is using root ld (/usr/bin/ld) instead of arm-linux-ld build by buildroot toolchain. i renamed /usr/bin/ld to /usr/bin/ld_orig and it failed with below error.

Is there any way to make directfb makefile to consider buildroot toolchain built ld instead of /usr/bin/ld

Hi

Isnt there any one who can shed a light on this and let me know what to do for DirectFB to take ld command from STAGING_DIR/usr instead of from /usr/bin
