I gave up on this, because libtool just works. The only problem is  
that some users may not have /usr/bin/glibtool and it is normal  
practice (at least in autoconf based packages) to ship the script  
with the sources, which is what I'm gonna do.

I don't statically link with -lm / -lz in because they are in /usr/ 
lib, I assume zlib is shipped with macos.

I still have to build static version of libjack, after that the  
"sumo" version of the bundle is ready for testing.

I had some doubts about doing that, the reason being: anyone with  
jackosx installed has Jack.framework, why do i need to duplicate it  
in fluxus? But this way somebody without jack installed can try  
fluxus out, like it and install jackosx when (s)he discovers that  
(start-audio) doesn't work.

After I'm done with jack I'll try to fix the configuration bit to  
check for appropriate (static / dynamic) versions of the libs and  
frameworks. Tomorrow I'll make sure I haven't broken nothing on Linux.

cheers,
