-We need to link some C object files into in the Lisp images we
-use.  Some Lisps (e.g. GCL, ECL) support inclusion of ``ordinary''
-object files.  Other Lisps (e.g. SBCL) support only dynamic
-or shared libraries.  However, the exact minutia of  portably
-building shared libraries are known to be fraught with all kinds
-of traps.  Consequently, dedicated tools have been developed to
-abstract away from those details.  In particular, we rely on
-GNU \Tool{libtool} to take care of that for us.
