Do you really need statically linked executables (they might need a lot
of disk space if you install all of them), or is it sufficient to
distribute all third party libraries which are needed to run QEMU
together with the executables (as I do it with my installers for Windows
on http://qemu.weilnetz.de/)? Even with a statically linked executable,
you won't get a one-file-distribution because QEMU needs a lot of
additional files during runtime (keyboard maps, firmware images, ...).

Up to now, I never have build a static QEMU executable for Windows, so I
simply don't know which problems might occur and which libraries are
available for static linking or not.
