It does miss a soname and shlibs file imho. Or it needs to move to
/usr/lib/liblustre/liblustre.so.

Where do you use the liblustre? I've never used it so far so it is
kind of hard to make it work right. The FAQ from lustre also only
mentions that one can use liblustre but not how.

We where thinking of dropping liblustre.so and only keeping the
liblustre.a for static linking. But if you need to use this with
LD_PRELOAD then that won't work.
