Are you using --with-ssl=PATH or pkg-config to specify OpenSSL? curl doesn't
provide such fine-grained control over which libraries to link statically
and which dynamically, so if you have both available, then the linker will
decide for you. If you want to override that, you're on your own, but
it might be as easy as specifying LIBS=/path/to/libssl.a on the configure
line. Otherwise, you could create a special pkg-config file with the
right flags for linking openssl statically and point configure to it
through PKG_CONFIG_PATH.
