'statically' is such an overloaded term I prefer to avoid using it.

The C linker will include the body of functions defined in non-shared
libraries into every shared object that references them, AFAIK.  This is
obvious if you run nm(1) on libbar.so of the example above, because the
libfoo_init() function is listed as 'T'.  I think that's what you want
by making the libfoo.a library non-shared in the first place.
