Good question :-)

Different methods I can think of:

1) Don't compile shared library if you don't have glib installed.

2) Make a directory, put a link to libglib.a there and add the directory
to LDFLAGS:

mkdir staticlibs
ln -s /usr/lib/libglib.a staticlibs/
make LDFLAGS=-L`pwd`/staticlibs
rm -rf staticlibs

3) Instruct the linker to pick the static library:
make GLIB_LIBS='-Wl,-Bstatic -lglib -Wl,-Bdynamic'

The same applies to all other libraries.
