If possible it should link dynamically against liblivemedia, otherwise mplayer needs a rebuild if a security problem is found in liblivemedia. However, it appears as if Sam intentionally dropped providing a shared lib in liblivemedia 2006.03.17-2 and he did that probably for a good reason, so maybe you can check the current status with him: | * 010_static_link.diff: (new patch from old diff.gz) create static | libraries instead of a shared one.
