I cannot check right now, but I think the solution should be to upgrade the
libtool script (ltmain.sh) of getfem++, I think we have not done that for a
long time and are still using an old and buggy libtool script. Or maybe try to
remove the AM_DISABLE_SHARED line in the configure.in file. We do not use
specific tricks in the getfem++ makefiles so it should work without problems,
but libtool is full of surprises !
