I've added a few patches upstream to make static linking work, and it
is [surprisingly] possible to get it to work.
You'll have to check out libguestfs from git. Read the README file
very carefully, and get familiar with building from source. This is
easier on a recent Fedora machine or VM.
I forgot one thing. You have to apply the following patch/hack.
diff --git a/rescue/Makefile.am b/rescue/Makefile.am
index eab06e9..49568e7 100644

[Sorry - I didn't see this email until now as virt-rescue is part of
the http://libguestfs.org project and so normally uses a different
mailing list]
