Done. That works. The main difference from the shared build is that
libcares is linked while building the curl binary itself:

xlc -g -qthreaded -qnoansialias -qhalt=e -g -o curl main.o hugehelp.o
urlglob.o writeout.o writeenv.o getpass.o homedir.o curlutil.o
strtoofft.o strdup.o -L/home/tor/git/curl/ares ../lib/.libs/libcurl.a
/home/tor/git/curl/ares/.libs/libcares.a -L/opt/freeware/lib -lldap
-L/opt/freeware/src/packages/BUILD/openldap-2.0.21/libraries -llber
-lssl -lcrypto -ls -lz -Wl,-blibpath:/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/lib:/lib
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/tor/git/curl/src'

As it seems to link OK on other platforms (where at list on Linux it
links libcares into the (dynamic) libcurl library), isn't this all due
to some autoconf/automake horrors?
