+dvblast: fix static linking
+
+dvblast links to -lev, wihch uses functions from the maths library,
+like floor().
+
+When linking to a shared libev.so, that dependency is automatically
+pulled in because libev as a DT_NEEDED ELF tag on libm.so.
+
+But when lnking to the static libev.a, since there is no way to express
+such dependencies in static libraries, libm is not pulled in, which
+leads to build failures such as;
+    http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/1f0/1f02f84fb926839a1adbe3af457bb909fdc44433/build-end.log
+
+Fix that by always linking to -lm (which must come *after* -lev).
