[Distutils] building with static dependencies

Hi All,

I'd like to build some packages into eggs such that I can easilly 
install them with virtual_env or buildout.

The packages in question are numpy and scipy, at the moment.

Are there parameters I can pass to "python setup.py build" or "python 
setup.py bdist_egg" that will cause the egg to be built will all its 
dependencies statically linked and included within the egg?

(ie: so I can build once on linux and once on windows, put the binary 
eggs in our local index and then not have to worry about the build 
proceses and convoluted dependencies on other machines of a similar 
architecture)

cheers,

Chris
