No .so files are needed for static linking. What error are you getting
if you remove MODE=shared?

There are static library equivalents for all those. Sounds like
setting the proper REQUIRES_LIBS in your Makefile should do the trick.

LD_DEBUG is an environment variable, so specifying it at compile time
in the Makefile is not useful. Instead, add it as an environment
variable to your setup:

L4.default_loader.start( { caps ...},
                         "rom/myProgram",
                         { LD_DEBUG=all }
};

Again, I would go for the static linking route.
