Update: The current status of this is that static linking isn't supported with threads. It's complicated. Every OpenBSD machine you're going to run on is going to have libthread. And if they have a different version of the library, they have a different version of the kernel. We've been pretty aggressive about reworking some of the thread system calls, so even if you did statically link, the resulting binary wouldn't run with a different kernel.
