Thanks Alon, I'll give it a try.

I'll probably use REALLY_STATIC as well, because, as I already pointed 
out, the libc is bionic and I do not wish to rely on it - I want 
everything openvpn depends on to be included in the binary. I know it 
could be massive in size, but I am prepared to take that hit. I also 
take it I can still run configure with the desired configuration 
options, is that correct?
