[CMake] Create executable with no dynamic dependency at all

I now tried:
set_target_properties(ui PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS "-static")

This helps so that "-static" is used when linking. Good.

Now the only problem I have is that "-Wl,-Bdynamic
-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib" is still added to the end of the linker
commandline - which is a bug, since no dynamic libs are linked.
Any ideas how to work-around this or how to track down why and where this
empty "-Wl,-Bdynamic" flag is added?


Thanks

James
