I get it on FC3 but not on OSX or Debian.

I can't comment on speed, my FC3 box is incredibly slow - it took 6 hours for 
the last test build from make distclean back to make dist. It's too slow to 
even attempt make doc or make check.

Maybe that's just FC3/4 being awkward. The .la files do make a valuable 
contribution to the portability of GModule code.

Maybe those .la files are being used wrongly, they don't look like portable 
modules to me.
