Does E statically link against anything? If not, why not add an
AC_DISABLE_STATIC to configure.in to disable libtool's building of the
static stuff. You'll still have to use scriptlet to get rid of the .la
files, but at least you won't build/install the static stuff. It'll also
speed up the build a bit, which might not be a bad thing for us frequent
updaters. :-)
