You mean --as-needed?

Well, that only happens for kdelibs libraries, because it's the same CMake 
project. 

For modules other than kdelibs, as long as kjsembed is mentioned nowhere, 
nothing else will link to it.

But, if possible, don't link to kjsembed in libraries. Only in final stuff 
(modules, applications).
