Comment (by cal@…):

 Replying to [comment:13 jeremyhu@…]:
 > It still needs to be updated to make sure the file is really a glibtool
 la file and not just something named *.la

 `/usr/share/file/magic/misctools` has a possible solution for that:
 {{{
 # Summary: Libtool library file
 # Extension: .la
 # Submitted by: Tomasz Trojanowski <tomek at uninet.com.pl>
 0   search/80   .la\ -\ a\ libtool\ library\ file   libtool library file
 }}}

 So it seems `file` just searches the fist line for ".la - a libtool
 library file".
