Ah yes... That was the hint I needed. I had stared at that line for
many minutes, and I thought it should be having some effect, but I
didn't know for sure that's where buillink2 was supposed to get this
setting from. Thank you very much for pointing it out directly!
It turns out that on the last merge with my local LDSTATIC changes an
extra ".else" had crept in and that section was never seen.
I should test this myself, but is it true our 'make' ignores unclosed
'.else' statements? I thought I should have got a warning or error if
there was an unbalanced .else/.endif.

It now correctly shows:
$ make show-var VARNAME=LDFLAGS
-L/usr/pkg/lib -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib
Note I got rid of the redundant identical '-L' with this hack:
(hand edited a bit, ignore the line numbers)

The correct fix would be for the LDFLAGS munging in
buildlink2/bsd.buildlink2.mk to check if a value is in the
variable before it adds it blindly again, something like this:
.if empty(LDFLAGS:M*${NEW_VALUE}*)
LDFLAGS+= ${NEW_VALUE}
.endif
but then there are lots of similar sins still spread throughout pkgsrc. :-)
