The old INTERNALLIB knob was confusion and not really used.
An internal lib is a static lib we create during `make world' because it
reduces compile times (ie, code that is shared).

I can think of very few reasons to build a .so, but not a .a.  Some
people do like to build static binaries.

src/share/mk is for /usr/src.  If /usr/ports can use the bits, that is
nice.  If not ports/Mk/bsd.FOO.mk should be created and used.
