It always produces the dynamically linked losetup, and also
"losetup.static" binary (when compiled with --enable-static-programs).

You needn't to redefine global LDFLAGS=, the configure script should
be smart enough to define proper compile flags.

You also need libuuid.a, the problem is that the configure script
does not set -luuid for the static build (depends on "pkg-config blkid
--libs --static"), workaround is:
BLKID_LIBS_STATIC="-lblkid -luuid" ./configure ....
this problem should be fixed in util-linux-ng 2.14.2-rc1 (try it:-)
