Alexandre,

I noticed:

and immediately wondered if one could say:

      lib_LTLIBRARIES = libhello.la
      libhello_la_SOURCES = hello-common.c
      if LINUX
      libhello_la_SOURCES+= hello-linux.c
      else
      libhello_la_SOURCES+= hello-generic.c
      endif

As I recall, there *used* to be a problem with this.  I don't know if it has
been fixed or not.
