networkmanager should not install any static libs since it's not a library. 0.8.999* unconditionally disables static libraries:

LT_INIT([disable-static])

Hence, this will get fixed once NM-0.8.999* moves to the tree from the GNOME overlay.

Alright, while doing bug 378849, I did this for the tree too. Fixed.
