The binutils-dev package description forbids Debian packages from
linking libbfd dynamically, because that would lead to very strict
versioned dependencies, so that frequent rebuilds are required to keep
every package in sync with current binutils. It would also make it
impossible to install multiple versions of linux-tools linked against
different binutils versions.
