I tried this on a box with only the static libmysqlclient library
available and got this:

*** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lmysqlclient.
*** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when
*** you link to this library.  But I can only do this if you have a
*** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have.
*** The inter-library dependencies that have been dropped here will be
*** automatically added whenever a program is linked with this library
*** or is declared to -dlopen it.

The final link line was:

/bin/sh ./libtool --silent --mode=link gcc  -O2 -g   -o libphp4.la -rpath

And /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a exists but it isn't being
statically linked almost as if we call AC_DISABLE_STATIC somewhere, but I
don't see it.

I haven't noticed this before because I have a libmysqlclient.so on my dev
box.
