Why does it need to be statically linked? Surely having the debug symbols
should be enough to let you run gdb with meaningful results, and this can be
done with shared libraries.

If your distribution doesn't provide debug symbols for BRLTTY, you can build
it with them.

I can't remember the right way to do it.
CC="gcc -g" make
is one method that may work.
