The default way of using Coin on Mac OS X is the framework installation. However, it is perfectly possible to do "Unix-style" static linking. To do this, you have to disable framework builds, enable static linking, and turn off runtime lookup of simage. For convenience, here are the options you need to build static versions of simage, Coin, and SoQt:
simage/configure --enable-static --disable-shared
Coin/configure --enable-static --disable-shared --without-framework --disable-dl-simage
SoQt/configure --enable-static --disable-shared --without-framework
