This change busts my build because it tries to link a dynamic library
(pcre) against a static library (libmain).  You can't do that.
(jlibtool barfs on this.)  It is only legal to link static libraries
against other static libraries.  Please revert.  -- justin

There was no problem with usual libtool. I think it simply records the 
dependency in the *.la file (but didn't check that).

Does the following change fix it for MacOS?

If so, that's better for several reasons.
