All I know is Subversion correctly builds both static and dynamic libraries when installed with MacPorts.

$ port installed subversion
The following ports are currently installed:
  subversion @1.6.16_0+mod_dav_svn+tools+universal (active)
$ port contents subversion | grep \\.a$
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_client-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_delta-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_diff-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_fs-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_fs_base-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_fs_fs-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_fs_util-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_ra-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_ra_local-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_ra_neon-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_ra_serf-1.a
  /opt/local/lib/libsvn_ra_svn-1.a

You could read the MacPorts subversion Portfile, and install subversion with MacPorts and read the debug output, to see exactly how that's accomplished; maybe you can adapt that for your own manual build. Or maybe you can just make use of the libraries MacPorts installs, and forgo building manually.
