OK so I solved this more or less. 1. The GN build is broken with respect to building static libraries. Once you leave 'gn land' and try and build something you're kind of screwed. 2. The deprecated GYP build does the right thing. For the moment I don't care if it's deprecated, since I'm going to pick a release tag and stick with it.
