Thanks, unfortuanetely those options made no difference at all, the same things 
are still dynamically linked.
At the very least I figured I can make due with only have the SSL library 
statically linked but I have tried -with-ssl=path (as per my other email).

In https://serverfault.com/a/715193 you will find the answer, to use "configure 
--disable-shared", but this option is not available in newer Apache servers.

Now you have multiple "static link" options. See

# httpd-2.4.56/configure --help
[...]
   --enable-mods-static=MODULE-LIST
                          Space-separated list of static modules to enable |
                          "all" | "most" | "few" | "reallyall"
[...]
   --enable-so             DSO capability. This module will be automatically
                          enabled unless you build all modules statically.
[...]
   --enable-ssl-staticlib-deps
                          link mod_ssl with dependencies of OpenSSL's static
                          libraries (as indicated by "pkg-config --static").
                          Must be specified in addition to --enable-ssl.
[...]
   --enable-static-support Build a statically linked version of the support
                          binaries
[...]
   --enable-jansson-staticlib-deps
                          link mod_md with dependencies of libjansson's static
                          libraries (as indicated by "pkg-config --static").
                          Must be specified in addition to --enable-md.
[...]

I tried this on openSUSE Tumbleweed, but for the most libraries the configure 
scripts does not find static libraries. So the resulting "httpd" has a lot of 
dynamic dependent libraries.

./configure   --enable-mods-static=all --disable-so --enable-ssl-staticlib-deps

ldd targetdir/bin/httpd
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffd6d7c9000)
        libssl.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libssl.so.3 (0x00007fc06e81c000)
        libcrypto.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.3 (0x00007fc06e200000)
        libjansson.so.4 => /usr/lib64/libjansson.so.4 (0x00007fc06e80b000)
        libcurl.so.4 => /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 (0x00007fc06e75e000)
        [...]
