Building libvirt library without libvirtd or virsh

Hello there, I'm trying to play with musl and libvirt to see if I'm able to build a libvirt client binary without dynamic lib dependencies. I have two questions: 1) to your knowledge, is this exercise futile? 2) Do you know if there is a way to *only* compile the library bits? I want to reduce the number of dependencies in the build, and only construct the libvirt libraries, not libvirtd nor virsh. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Roman.-
