Looks like a bug in many *lib.rules configuration files. The
LinkBuildSonameLibrary() macro doesn't build the export/lib directory
first. (The LinkBuildLibrary() macro used by non-shared libs does).
It currently works with other shared libraries because the 1st built
library is precisely libXau and its normally built non-shared only, so
its build rule will indeed create the export/lib directory.
If the 1st built library is shared and since the shared target appears
1st in Library.tmpl, the directory isn't created.
This should be fixed.
