[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi, 

This patch adds a static version of libuv (build with -fPIC) needed by
zynfusion.

Feel free to edit it as appropriate, I am not sure if this method of
doing it is acceptable.

Thanks,
Alex

It's possible to link static archives from shared objects built with
-fPIC; so I'd suggest doing:

gnu: Add libuv-next.

* gnu/packages/libevent.scm (libuv-next): New variable.

and using that, if it's really necessary.

Thanks,
