This will only happen with the ARC external toolchain, because it uses a uClibc version that predates the merging of all libraries into libc.so in the uClibc-ng project. Therefore, I'm not really thrilled by the solution that consists in disabling fwup. I think I'd prefer to temporarily disable BR2_STATIC_LIBS with this toolchain.
