Dunno. Was my first impression, but since it built anyway… :)

Well, then building will fail when trying to find the .la, so we'd have
to get rid of it conditionally for non-Linux architectures.

Which would be reopened for non-Linux arch if we don't strip the .la.

I'm going to follow up to my libibverbs bug, asking for the
