does work. So I hope this is finally the way to do it.
Typically .la files are built and not shipped as source, and thus appearing
in buildsrc. If that's the case in your set up, you should probably replace
top_srcdir with top_builddir.
It is not necessary to specify top_builddir because that is where the
Makefile is written and the directory where the build is performed.
As you say, specifying $(top_srcdir) may cause harm since it is likely
to break VPATH builds.
