The debug layer (i.e. DbgRenderSystem) is always linked statically because it's part of the LLGL.lib and not another dynamically loaded library (like LLGL_OpenGL.lib for instance).

In VisualStudio, debugging dynamically loaded libraries is not a big deal, but if it doesn't work on your platform, just build the entire LLGL project as static lib (i.e. with the CMake option LLGL_BUILD_STATIC_LIB enabled). In this case, however, you can only build a single render system:
