Fix link problems on murlibobo caused by my recent changes
to the way libmer_std.so and libmer_browser.so are built.
The problem was due to shared libraries being renamed
after they were built without telling the linker.
library/mer_std.m:
browser/mer_browser.m:
Empty modules used to generate the libraries with
the correct names.
library/Mmakefile:
browser/Mmakefile:
Build and install libmer_std.* and libmer_browser.*
rather than liblibrary.* and libmdb.*.
Mmake.workspace:
Mmake.common.in:
Make sure SO_LOCATIONS_DIR is in ml's environment
when building the libraries.
Fix the order of the `-l' options.
compiler/Mmakefile:
Make sure `main.o' comes before the library `.a' files
on the ml command line.
doc/Mmakefile:
Add mer_std.m to the list of files for which documentation
should not be generated.
trace/Mmakefile:
Add the grade-specific library directory to the rpath
for libmer_trace.so.
