The I have looked at there Makefile before, and build this. They already
mark there 'libraries'. So it would be only one update...
As I've said before, while this is useful in the long term, this doesn't
make the existing code go away. We need to be able to spport iSCSI on
RHEL-5 vintage which has no such library.
