When building the static version of bash, runtime dependencies on
gettext-runtime and readline should not be present as the binary is
statically linked. This change excludes the PORTS_READLINE and NLS
options in the slave port to avoid unnecessary dependencies.

Why can't these archive files be leveraged:

Just tried in poudriere, previously all dynamically linked, now statically:
root@134-release-amd64-default-head-common:/usr/ports/shells/bash # ls -l /usr/local/bin/bash -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 2434520 Mar 1 21:27 /usr/local/bin/bash
What am I missing?

This looks perfectly fine:

The message from ldd is expected because the executable isn't dynamic. Does this make sense for you?

You chose:
STATIC : on
LDD reports:
[root@134-release-amd64-default-head-common /usr/ports/shells/bash]# ldd /usr/local/bin/bash ldd: /usr/local/bin/bash: not a dynamic ELF executable
- Makes sense

Yes. I'd like to do that. If the user wants to have a static version without any port readline or gettext he can simply rebuild shells/bash-static without those options. Sure, no pre-built pkgs but that's just the way it is.
