We have things like

        LDADD+= -lfoo
        DPADD+= ${LIBFOO}

all over the source tree.  Are you suggesting that they should all be
changed?

Perhaps DPADD could be derived automatically from LDADD by some (new)
magic in bsd.lib.mk which would do the right thing according to whether
the library is statically or dynamically linked.
