So I have 2 packages build depending on libebl-dev now:
- dwarves-dfsg
- systemtap

I'm guessing that now the only reason to have that dependency
is to get /usr/lib/libebl.a for linking.  And that neither
package is making use of /usr/include/elfutils/libebl.h

So what I would like to do is drop the libebl-dev package and
have /usr/lib/libebl.a integrated into /usr/lib/libdw.a so that
you only have to use -ldw.

Please let me know if this is acceptable for you or not.  


PS: I'm preparing an upload of 0.140.
