Ignoring the both case, which I think is just unsupported right now - it
wasn't there when we added support originally for building DPDK - using the
shared/static setting still won't solve the problem since it only applied
to DPDK's own apps. The reason for building both static and shared libs is
to give apps the flexibility to link against either as they prefer - using
the pkg-config appropriately. It's perfectly valid to have testpmd linked
statically in a DPDK build so that it can be run from the build directory,
yet have other apps on the system linked dynamically.

Interesting. It seems a bit awkward a solution, but may be doable.
