Try "--disable-shared".  The options say whether to *build* the
static or shared libs, respectively, and those two choices are
*not* mutually exclusive.  There seems not to be an explicit
"link statically" option, so I'm guessing that the way to do that
is to prevent the shared ones from being built in the first
place.

Another possibility would be to go behind libtool's back with
"LDFLAGS=-static", if you're using gcc...

I haven't tried either of these.

It must be said that they would have sounded better if the singer
wouldn't throw his fellow band members to the ground and toss the
drum kit around during songs.
