Building pkgsStatic.openssl_3_0 fails.

Steps To Reproduce

My notes:

From IRC:

heat: you're linking against a static crtbegin. that is not correct (in this case, you seem to be making a shared lib or a pie executable)
dalias: for some reason you're linking the wrong crt startfiles
heat: I would take a look at i.e alpine's PKGBUILD and see what they're doing, and compare that with nix

This seems to have been fixed in the meantime.

$ nix build nixpkgs#openssl_3_0
$ ldd result-bin/bin/openssl
	not a dynamic executable

Thanks. It is building for me as .#pkgsStatic.openssl_3_0. I'll close this then.
