This is worth keeping for the record, as the first documented case where
*.la files are necessary and where the advice to remove all *.la files
breaks things.

admin/acinclude.m4.in, a general kde thing, it seems.

Yeah.  I'm so behind on KDE updating, but I'll add this to the list.
:)  I should probably be able to change it to look for .so instead.
