I thought the static library building bug was supposed to be fixed in 1.5.1. 
In 1.5, I had to use this:
for i in \
        ./plugins/kdb/db2/libdb2/hash \
        ./plugins/kdb/db2/libdb2/db \
        ./plugins/kdb/db2/libdb2/mpool \
        ./plugins/kdb/db2/libdb2/btree \
        ./plugins/kdb/db2/libdb2/recno \
        ./plugins/kdb/db2/libdb2/clib; do
                (cd $i; make OBJS.ST)
done

Now, I get this during ./configure:
(...)
checking for library containing dlopen... -ldl
configure: error: Sorry, static libraries do not work in this release.

My ./configure line is:
./configure --enable-shared --enable-static \
	--localstatedir=/var/kerberos --enable-kdc-replay-cache \
	--enable-dns-for-realm --libdir=/usr/lib/krb5/lib \
	--without-krb4 --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man \
	--infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include
