Don't link build scripts dynamically #1960

There's no real reason to eagerly link build scripts dynamically as they're not
going to benefit that much from dynamic linking. Most of the time they only have
one dynamic dependency, libstd, and most other Rust programs don't link it
dynamically so there's not really many space savings either.

And even if there was, build scripts are transient anyway.

That is such a weird build failure. However I am glad that dojob is doing its job of cleaning up all the zombies.
