I think it's when the dependencies (glibc etc.) are compiled into the binary so you can run newer software on older operatives without needing to reinstall linux once it goes out of support. Some people argue that having an old installation is a security risk, but seen bugs like heart bleed and such I think the gamble is actually even.

I need a static compile for my old node. Any version > 0.9.5.

Why do you want the old binary builds?

Yes, but 0.9.1 was the last with bitcoind.static, why did they stop building static builds?

Specially when they have bugs that only a upgrade can fix?
