Evan,

That's the sort of answer I was after.

These options are documented in the "./configure --help" which is the
script provided with the source tree for compilation, but since you are
already reading this...

--enable-static-linking makes the compiled binary independent from
anything else on the system. The intent is to provide an application
that will not get "broken" when shared libraries are updated sometime in
the future.
There are a couple of caveates about this, but I'm not going to get into
that here.

--enable-tcp-wrapper=no makes the resulting syslog-ng NOT check the
/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files for remote connection
authorization.

Evan.
