xmlwf is in its own subdir, without a Makefile, it is build from the
top-sourcedir.
Makefile.in:
...
default:  buildlib xmlwf/xmlwf

buildlib: $(LIBRARY)

all: $(LIBRARY) xmlwf/xmlwf examples/elements examples/outline

I understand now, the target has a / in its name, libtool should use
some function like basename and append the lt- to the basename and not
to the target name.
