I've had success with setting both

DYNAMIC_BY_DEFAULT   = NO
DYNAMIC_GHC_PROGRAMS = NO

and removing the 'dyn' way altogether from GhcLibWays by setting
GhcLibWays = v explicitely. I expect that the latter is optional;
my goal was only to speed up the build.

(The lines were copied from the perf-cross settings.)
