I have the same question that Borgert asked.  The relevant lines in my
Makefile look like:

$(OUTPUT): $(OBJS)
    ar rc $(OUTPUT) $(OBJS)
    ranlib $(OUTPUT)


The above produces libquicktime.a 

How would I find out the correct .so "major" and "minor" numbers (if that
*is* the right terminology) if I were to create dynamic libraries as you'd
mentioned?  Also, how do I create the libquicktime.la?


Thanks.
