curl-config is only valid when compiling applications against the installed
version of libcurl, which in this case looks like it's the shared library.
If you want to link against a different library, you're on your own.
Ideally, curl-config would have a different option (like --static-libs)
for this kind of application. You could use pkg-config instead of
curl-config for your app, which does have an option for static libs.
