I don't think the build should use that.  It is certainly not the
default.

Some of that.  The C library cannot be linked in statically, because
Windows doesn't come with static versions of the MSVCRT.

Not "always", only if you use the scripts provided by Phillip.  The
default build procedure doesn't use -static.
