I've been meaning to update the instructions, but work and travel
sidetracked me.
We've been telling people to use
sudo -s
find /sw/lib -name *.la -delete
to clear out _all_ of their .la files, which are nominally only needed
at build time, and many of which contain references to .la files that
were provided by Apple at one point but aren't any more, e.g.
/usr/lib/libiconv.la, /usr/X11/lib/*.la, .... There are some packages,
however, that rely on these files to be present, so a better scheme
would be in order.
