This seems like the libtool problem that I was discussing with
Alexandre Oliva a while ago. Did you configure with or without shared
libraries?
libtool basically is confused by a system which does not need a
separate archive of object files. When it goes to build the convenience
library, it does not find any object files and creates an empty, broken
archive which fails when referenced.
I have a work-around in my tree which probably is not correct for
the opposite case, but I don't know what the real problem is and I have
not made progress with the libtool developers.
