Rob, how would I do that? Can you point me to any info?

Ah, outstanding! By doing:
$ ar -x libfoo.a
$ ld -d y -G -o libfoo.so *.o -L/home/foo/lib -lblah1 -lblah2
$ gcc -shared -fPIC -I../aolserver/include -g -Wall -o myfoo.so myfoo.c

I was able to take apart the vendor's .a file, put it back together as
a libfoo.so,

Rob, why did you want to use -nostartfiles ?
Because AOLserver uses that on Linux. See LDSO in Makefile.global.
I have a newbie's C module development question:
I have a closed-source C API that I want to use from AOLserver. Ok,
no problem, creating a myfoo.so AOLserver loadable module to do that
should be straightforward. Unfortunately, the vendor of this

I think you can just say ld -o blah.so -shared blah.a without extracting
.o files.
The tricky part is going to be ensuring that the files were compiled with
the -D_REENTRANT flag on Linux. Otherwise, the code won't work in weird
cases (like referencing errno).

So, just make a libfoo.so that only consists of libfoo.a linked
in.
gcc -shared -o libfoo.so
