I believe the official Sun position is that static libraries and static linking
is akin to evil incarnate.

We definitely won't be shipping a static version in Solaris, but if someone
using the source release wanted to build a static version, it should be as
simple as adding '#define NormalLibXft YES' to xc/config/cf/host.def (assuming
building in the X tree, as we do for the Solaris version - for the standalone
version you probably need to add it to localdefines in the xftbridge directory,
but since I've never built it, I don't know how it's expected to be built).
