No, not here, was copied from another project.
The downside for this approach is that now everything that is linked is
linked against libelf, even the convenience libs.

/bin/bash ../../../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc  -g -O2 -Wall -O2
  -o ../libcpu.la  plt.lo regs.lo trace.lo  -lelf

But that's just a cosmetic problem, doesn't affect the file size. I've
tested it with with libelfs on ubuntu. You can add my Tested-by:

When doing kernel development it's usual add you S-o-b to the patches
from other people if you add then to you own branch. How do you handle
it in ltrace?

Cheers, Marc
