One little follow-up. I found a repo with a static libjpeg ( 
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/15157141/dir/redhat_el_5/com/libjpeg-static-6b-
37.cubbi3.0.1.x86_64.rpm.html ), but when using it the build still fails with this output:

/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libjpeg.so when searching for -ljpeg

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libjpeg.a(jcapimin.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not 
be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

/usr/lib/libjpeg.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

error: command 'cc' failed with exit status 1
