Statically compiled Bash3 still depends on shared libs.

I tried to modify Bash 3 port, building a static Bash.
The problem I have is that Bash always depends on libintl.so.6 and
libiconv.so.3.
I passed ==enable-static-link to Bash configure and LDFLAGS= "-static" but
still no success.
Finally i tried to build Bash-3 from its sources. I've noticed that its
configure cannot detect and use static libs (libiconv.a)
Is it a Bash specific bug or i missed something ?

Any idea ?
