| Neil, thank you very much for your insightful summary of the matter. Now
| it seems pretty clear that this issue cannot be handled in the libav
| package, but needs to be solved at the pkg-config level. I'm therefore
| reassigning this bug to pkg-config.

Just to make it clear, what you want is a way for a package (libA) to
say «you can't build this statically»?  If so, there's no way to do that
with pkg-config and unless you can convince me what the use case is and
why this is worth supporting, I'm not going to add it.
