try following:

tar xzf balsa-2.1.0.tar.gz
cd balsa-2.1.0
tar xzf gmime-2.1.1.tar.gz


dir=`pwd`; cd gmime-2.1.1 &&
 ./configure --prefix=`pwd` --disable-shared && make install; cd $dir

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="gmime-2.1.1:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" ./configure

That's what is being done when an rpm is built (see balsa.spec file).  
Gmime is then linked statically.
