It fails to build from source here (on mips):

ar cru .libs/testmodule.a  testmodule-ext.o testmodule-dll.o
ranlib .libs/testmodule.a
creating testmodule.la
(cd .libs && rm -f testmodule.la && ln -s ../testmodule.la testmodule.la)
/usr/bin/install -c .libs/testmodule.soT /build/tbm/pfe-0.33.34/debian/tmp/usr/lib/pfe//testmodule.so

16:33 <tbm> VERSION=1.4.2
16:34 <Keybuk> ah, yeah, that's an old bug
16:35 <Keybuk> basically you've not got a libpfe.so, but are trying to
               make a shared library
16:35 <Keybuk> which you can't do
16:37 <tbm> so what's the fix?
16:37 <Keybuk> you'd need to upgrade it to libtool 1.5
