Well, bugtracker is not a place for comments, it's for solutions.

Anyway... statically compiling things is not a way of avoiding trouble, at
least not in a self-sustained fashion. So, if you propose to have pacman in
[core] statically compiled against all needed libraries, I would be against
that as the package will be an unmaintainable mess. That might work for a
rescue (read embedded-like system with ulibc) system, but probably booting
from a live media is much easier and more robust.
