Finally managed to build a static extension and include it with
pyqtdeploy. I added a gist [1] with instructions for cross-compiling
Python for ARM and creating a static version of a C-extension (e.g.
RPi.GPIO) if anyone's interested.

Once you have librpigpio.a, add an extension with pyqtdeploy in the
'Other Extension Modules' tab (e.g. RPi._GPIO), leave the SOURCES
field empty and insert the path and library name in the LIBS field
(e.g -L$BUILDROOT/3rdparty/RPi.GPIO -lrpigpio).

Cheers,

Thijs
