Summary:                    Some build targets use hard-coded library names,
which causes forced rebuild on Mac OS X
Description: 
Library names ending with .so should have .dylib in makefile targets on OS
X. Otherwise, the build system always thinks that the library isn't built
and tries to (re-)build it on every make invocation. Attached a patch that
adds a config option for library filename extension and fixes the packages
that seemed to suffer from this.

Attached an updated patch for current SVN. Some EXEEXTs would probably be
needed in binutils.mk makerules for Windows hosts.

You have to use LIBTGTEXT where possible (i.e. in packages that can be
built as static or dynamic library). See the toplevel Makefile for
LIBTGTEXT.

Please update the patch accordingly.
thanks,
