There is no manpage for lafilefixer, but the --help flag prints:

      --justfixit       Choose some reasonable dirs, such as /usr/lib*, etc. ,
                        find all .la files and fix them to not use .la files
                        for linking

I can't make sense out of that -- one of the major uses of libtool (I thought)
is for linking.  Can anyone 'splain that to me?

Thanks.
