Not sure about static binaries, though: do those even use the VDSO?

With "static binary" people usually mean "a binary not using any DSOs",
I think the VDSO is a DSO, also in this respect? As always, -static
builds are *way* less problematic (and faster and smaller :-) )


AFAIK on powerpc even static binaries use the vDSO, otherwise signals don't work.
