For the search engines:
The problem was that the variables have to be set when the include
files are processed. So the lines setting all my file names has to
occur before the lines:
builddir=.
top_srcdir=...
top_builddir=...
include .../build/special.mk
Otherwise, they aren't set, so the .la files don't have an
dependencies, so nothing gets compiled, and so on.
