This is what I'm using to create a version of psql on OS X with libpq 
statically linked:

gcc -no-cpp-precomp -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith 
-Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing command.o common.o help.o input.o 
stringutils.o mainloop.o copy.o startup.o prompt.o variables.o 
large_obj.o print.o describe.o psqlscan.o tab-complete.o mbprint.o  
../../../src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.a -L../../../src/interfaces/libpq 
-L../../../src/port  -lpgport -lz -lresolv -ldl -lm  -o psql
