I'm not sure I understand what's so hard about "compile stuff, use
'ar' to pack into libopenvpn.a" that stuff needs more convolutions.
We're not building a shared library - which I agree is major pains unless
handled by libtool. But static libraries are easy on about everything
(except Windows, can't speak about that).

This is missing the point: I think what automake/autoconf is doing now
is much too complicated. I *like* to see what it's doing, and hiding
complexity by just not showing it is a step into the wrong direction.

We're doing that now: branch is called "master".
