I think that whether you link the MFC libs statically or dynamically
doesn't matter. These don't have anythink to do with libcurl at all.
The CURL_STATIC is, AFAIK, a #define, ie use it as

#define CURL_STATIC

that should do it. You'll also need to create a new project (win32
static library), put in all the sources from the dynamic one and
compile. That shoud create a .lib file, which is what you need. Also,
I remember there's some configuratio header for including platform
specific headers
