Whilst the separate build directory work is a massive improvement,
there's plenty of packages that don't do B!=S and use libtool.  We're
not alone, at least Fedora and OSTree both wipe out all .la files.

As B!=S should solve this problem and others I can see the argument
for spending time making that work more comprehensively though.
