nm-pppd-plugin.so: strange build



Hi,

looking at the NM 0.7 source, I noticed that the pppd plugin
is built as executable (nm_pppd_plugin_PROGRAMS = nm-pppd-plugin.so)
with a very strange *.so file ending and an attempt to transform it in
some sort of shared object by using -shared and -fPIC.

Why isn't lib_LTLIBRARIES used at first place for compiling the nm-pppd
plugin? As it's a private plugin, pkglib_LTLIBRARIES would probably be
even better.

Could someone shed some light on this current odd situation of the pppd
plugin?

Cheers,
Michael
