On Linux the networking-related libraries cannot be statically linked (for
reasons i once knew but no longer recall). Or they _can_ be linked but the
linker will warn you that it's not _really_ statically linking them and
that the DLL will be used at run-time. Fossil's TCL support also appears to
use dlopen(), which cannot be used in statically-linked programs (at least
on Linux). Like networking libs, it will produce warnings like:

warning: Using 'dlopen' in statically linked applications requires at
runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking
