Presently this means alot of hacking of makefiles, and fixing the
issue the libraries have with linking based on relative path.  None of
these are insurmountable, but it hardly seems worth the time if I know
I'm just going to have to maintain it all by hand, and do the same
thing the next time they add a library.  I think I'll just wait till
they or someone autoconfiscates and libtoolizes it.
