I think the trick is to tell it how to link the modules.  Here's a piece of a 
config.nice I use for an httpd with a minimal set of statically linked modules:

"./configure" \
"--with-mpm=worker" \
"--prefix=/home/gregames/apache/install" \
"--enable-maintainer-mode" \
"--enable-log_config=static" \
"--enable-status=static" \
"--enable-specweb99=static" \

Hope this helps,
Greg
