How about -static-only and -shared-only?

Note though that Ralf has -Bstatic defined as:
  If @var{output-file} is a program, prefer linking statically
                                     ^^^^^^

This is not -Bstatic under Linux according to ld(1). If this is what
is intended, then -prefer-static is back :)
