Most odd.  As I mentioned before, .lo files are just GNU Libtool's
identifier for what would normally be .o files.  The .lo indicates that
these files are compiled with Position Independent Code (PIC) and are thus
are suitable to be linked into .so files - shared objects (what you find in
/lib or /usr/lib for example, like DLL's in Windows).
