It can be tricky to get static executables out of a complex build process that wasn't put together with that goal in mind.

For reasons, I was trying to do that for a while, but it was easier for me to bundle a dynamic exe with the dependencies (including an appropriate dynamic linker) rather than continue to fight with complex makefiles. Without looking at the code, it seems like this ended up similarly.
