You can't do that. OpenSSL is only linked into the proxy, but libsoup
itself would depend on gnutls, and you can't have a shared library
depend on a static library. (At least, you can't do it portably and you
certainly can't expect it to work if the user doesn't still have that
static library installed when building other things later.)
