Yes, but there's no libgmodule.a - i.e., no static library.

What's more, if Linux's notion of a static build is anything like  
SunOS 4.x's and 5.x's, it might not be possible for there to *be* a  
libgmodule.a; the gmodule stuff is for run-time loading of modules  
(such as plugins), and a fully-static binary might not have the run- 
time linker available.

If so, you will have to configure with --without-plugins.

--disable-glib?  Good luck - Wireshark and TShark use GLib all over  
the place.

I'm not sure there's any such option in any case; note that configure  
scripts don't check whether the string after --enable or --disable is  
valid:

        $ ./configure --disable-magic-fingers
        checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin{censored}
        checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin{censored}
        checking target system type... powerpc-apple-darwin{censored}
        checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

                ...
