I know, but I generally avoid using environment variables; I put my
build machinery under version control and make sure I can get a
reproducible build from there, without the need for environment
variables. YMMV.

I already do that for the shared libraries in all Debian packages. I
haven't bothered doing it for the static libraries, since linking
dynamically is so much better - at least in Debian.
