yeah, os x's linker doesn't like multiple same-named symbols in the common
section of libraries.  IIRC, if you compile _every_ .c file and link the
lib and executable (if any) with the '-fno-common' cmdline option, it'll
work.  however, i'm not sure how to tell libtool to do that in a portable
way.
