It is not possible to build statically linked programs when ECL has been
built as a shared library. So if you want that feature, build a copy of ECL
using --disable-shared and use that copy to link your program.

I know this is a hack, but building ECL as as statically linked implies
changes all over ECL and right now we do not have a simple way to duplicate
the building process --with and without static libraries.
