Comment (by pierre.labastie):

 '''.la files change the libraries that are linked into programs'''

 Because of a bug in ICA (now fixed), .la files were deleted after first
 pass, but not after second. This was leading to various programs begin
 linked differently between 2nd and 3rd pass, and also some RPATH added on
 3rd pass.

 '''Solution'''
 .la files are evil! Strongly suggest to delete them, but "your distro,
 your rules".

 '''Possible side effect'''
 Several if '''not''' removing .la files (specially because of the mixture
 between meson and libtool).
