This patchset looks great to me.

Although Dave has mentioned that the first patch probably isn't strictly
necessary... I think that it's worth pulling in.  Since we build with libtool
we should also install with libtool.

Dave also asked about dmapi.  I took a brief look at the dmapi Makefiles.  It
appears the library is already installed using INSTALL_LTLIB.

Looks good!
