You can with -R, but that doesn't solve this problem.  I don't want to
remove /usr/lib from the link path.

The problem really is that when you give configure a path to some specific
place for a static library, but you also have that library as a shared
library in /usr/lib things get messy because we do the configure check
against the located static library explicitly, but then we do a
-L/specific/place -lgd which ends up linking in the different shared
library from /usr/lib.  It isn't just for GD this happens, it just so
happens to be more common for people to have two copies of GD.
