Hey Miklos,
I just did this yesterday :)
You need to use the the compiler switch -Xlinker to pass
switches to the linker. The linker switches you need are -Bstatic and -Bdynamic.
As an example:

gcc (...) -Xlinker -Bstatic -Xlinker -lssl -Xlinker -Bdynamic -Xlinker -lcurl

That would link ssl statically and curl dynamically.
You need -Xlinker for each argument you pass.
Also -Bstatic must precede -Bdynamic.
Chris.
