yes, the l4 build system gets annoyed when a .so is not a .so but is,
in fact an ldscript:

ls -l /usr/lib/libc.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 238 2007-07-08 04:41 /usr/lib/libc.so
[rminnich@xcpu ~]$ tail /usr/lib/libc.so
/* GNU ld script
   Use the shared library, but some functions are only in
   the static library, so try that secondarily.  */
OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf32-i386)
GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a  AS_NEEDED (
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 ) )

makes you wonder why the bother with a suffix.
