It wouldn't be a switch given to make, but a switch given to the compiler. Try CFLAGS="-static" ./configure, if that doesn't work, LDFLAGS="-static" ./configure

Does anybody know of a switch to put on the libcurl make to build a truly self-sufficient (static) libcurl.a which has no dependencies?
No, and there is no reason that libcurl.a should be capable of being build that way.

As others have said, you need to (1) tell the compiler you are building a static application and (2) name all the static libraries necessary to resolve all symbols.
