I take this back, It built correctly but it seems the makefile doesn't 
build the shared library to link against?!

The Archlinux package has something similar to:

   ${CXX} -shared -o lib${PN}.so.0.${PV} \
     -Wl,-soname,lib${PN}.so.0 $(ls *.o | grep -v xmltest)

Which seems to collect all the objects and link them together into a 
shared object? Is there anywhere else in OE we do this so I could see 
how it is formally done?
