.la files are useless on an ELF system
Cite, please? Given that around 35% of our libtool-using ports already installed .la files prior to this change, as well as extensive use of them in Linux and NetBSD's pkgsrc (both of which run on ELF-based systems, last time I checked), I'm sure any such critical problems would have been found by now.
, and may be harmful if you are trying to cross-build software that links against libraries for which .la files are installed.
Again, please cite, particularly given the capability to cross-build pkgsrc.
