Comment (by nickm):

 Replying to [comment:37 sbs]:
 > Hello! My apologies for a late reply and having neglected this ticket
 for quite some time. I was rightfully prodded by hellais to explain what
 we exactly need and I understand that any way in which this is simpler is
 easier for you guys to maintain. Long story short, what we need is the
 following: a single static library compiled with `-fPIC` and a header. (I
 do understand that having a shared library is probably a nice value
 proposition for people that perhaps wants to link to Tor, but I can also
 feel that it would complicate the build, so, since we do not need it, I
 would not advocate for it.) Thanks! :-)

 This is much easier, and we can probably get it done in 0.3.5.

 I think we can get away with not using libtool here, since although the ar
 tricks described on that link are not universal, the easiest ones ought to
 be something we can hack together.
