Interesting! Apparently what we should do is specify --disable-modules as that will build the modules into the library as statics. There is also --with-included-immodules to specify precisely which modules you want to be statically built-in, but in our case we want them all built in. The ATK library it says should be obtained from https://download.gnome.org/sources/atk/ I don't know if we get it?
