That actually doesn't quite work right. One needs to either link to the file
by name (i.e. just $prefix/lib/libpython3.11.so instead of -lpython3.11), or
create a wrapper .a "manually". I.e.

ar crs $prefix/lib/libpython3.11.a $prefix/lib/libpython3.11.so

I tried quite a few things and got confused between the attempts.
