Indeed, I forgot about this ones. Thanks for reminding me. In the  
cmake build, the files from lib/libc are directly included into  
another build - src/libqof/qof in this case. So that's how I got  
around this in the experimental cmake build.

Every library defined as noinst_LTLIBRARIES in the Makefile. As you  
say, we have them in lib/libc, and also lib/stf, and src/test-core/,  
but no further. That's why I said we don't use them for our important  
parts.
