The standard way of getting /MT is to configure 'no-shared', i.e. not
produce DLLs.

    perl Configure VC-WIN64A no-shared

However, if the main issue is *your* application, then the simplest
way is to link with the static library, regardless of configuration.
We do produce alongside static libraries alongside the DLLs since
1.1.1: libcrypto_static.lib.

Cheers,
Richard
