Ignore them?  Some source files end up, based on #defines, to have nothing
in them, so when compiled, they have no symbols.  Eg, rand_os2.c:

<http://cvs.openssl.org/fileview?f=openssl/crypto/rand/rand_os2.c>

when built on anything other than OS/2 will have nothing, hence the message
you see from libtool below.  Note also at the end that it finished building
the library, so does it work as expected?
