# Build a library with symbolic name $(1).  The library is defined by
# various variables prefixed by ‘$(1)_’:
#
# - $(1)_NAME: the name of the library (e.g. ‘libfoo’); defaults to
#   $(1).
#
# - $(1)_DIR: the directory where the (non-installed) library will be
#   placed.
#
# - $(1)_SOURCES: the source files of the library.
#
# - $(1)_CXXFLAGS: additional C++ compiler flags.
#
# - $(1)_LIBS: the symbolic names of other libraries on which this
#   library depends.
#
# - $(1)_ALLOW_UNDEFINED: if set, the library is allowed to have
#   undefined symbols.  Has no effect for static libraries.
#
# - $(1)_LDFLAGS: additional linker flags.
#
# - $(1)_LDFLAGS_PROPAGATED: additional linker flags, also propagated
#   to the linking of programs/libraries that use this library.
#
# - $(1)_FORCE_INSTALL: if defined, the library will be installed even
#   if it's not needed (i.e. dynamically linked) by a program.
#
# - $(1)_INSTALL_DIR: the directory where the library will be
#   installed.  Defaults to $(libdir).
#
# - BUILD_SHARED_LIBS: if equal to ‘1’, a dynamic library will be
#   built, otherwise a static library.
