Subject: parallel installation ignores deps between libtool libraries

Hello

Consider a Makefile.am like this:

    lib_LTLIBRARIES = libfoo.la

    plugindir = $(libdir)/gstreamer-0.10
    plugin_LTLIBRARIES = bar.la
    bar_la_LIBADD = libfoo.la

Obviously we are missing some sources here, but it suffices to show the
parallel installation bug: there is a race between relinking the
installed bar.la and the installed libfoo.la. It could be that libfoo.la
isn't there yet.

Let me know if you need more info. Please Cc: me on replies.

Cheers,

Andy
