Do you have a really good reason for doing that?  Just about every
distro nowadays strongly discourages static linking, because it makes
it so painful to deal with bug or security fixes in libraries.  (Red Hat
won't even distribute static libraries except in some special cases,
and libpq definitely isn't one of the exceptions.)
