I would not try do implement this by detecting a static build.
I would try to do it by first trying to link only with '-lselinux',
and if that fails, try with '-lselinux -lpcre -lsepol -lpthread'.
Basically, replace
AC_SEARCH_LIBS([setfilecon], [selinux],
[test "$ac_cv_search_setfilecon" = "none required" ||
LIB_SELINUX=$ac_cv_search_setfilecon])
with two AC_LINK_IFELSE invocations. And with the function
'matchpathcon_init_prefix' instead of 'setfilecon', of course.
