Hi Dmitry,
there is no cygwin build server. Any maintainer build the packages by itself.
To replicate download the source package with setup and

$ cd /usr/src
$ cygport libxml2-2.7.7-1.cygport prep compile


From the Yaakov's package source build log  I see :

checking whether to build shared libraries... yes
checking whether to build static libraries... no

so something is blocking the "theoretical" default configuration

  --enable-shared[=PKGS]  build shared libraries [default=yes]
  --enable-static[=PKGS]  build static libraries [default=yes]

and looking on configure we see that the default seems no

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # Check whether --enable-static was given.
if test "${enable_static+set}" = set; then :
  enableval=$enable_static; p=${PACKAGE-default}
    case $enableval in
    yes) enable_static=yes ;;
    no) enable_static=no ;;
    *)
     enable_static=no
      # Look at the argument we got.  We use all the common list separators.
      lt_save_ifs="$IFS"; IFS="${IFS}$PATH_SEPARATOR,"
      for pkg in $enableval; do
        IFS="$lt_save_ifs"
        if test "X$pkg" = "X$p"; then
          enable_static=yes
        fi
      done
      IFS="$lt_save_ifs"
      ;;
    esac
else
  enable_static=yes
fi
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

so an enable static should be added to the .cygport.
