classes/base.bbclass:
   Change oe_libinstall (watch carefully):
   If the user requires the installation of a static library and it
   does not exist we want the user to notice and fail. I assume this
   was then intended purpose for the requirestatic variable.
   The matter for the dotlai (.lai) is a bit different. The system
   automatically detects the .la file and assumes it is libtool generated
   and wants to install the .lai file even if it does not exist. I think
   this is wrong and I change it to do the following:
   If it decides it has libtool it installs the .lai if it is present.
   (change the -o to -a)
   At least Qt Version 3 has a .la but no .lai in its library directory
   and oe_libinstall fails to install.
