Trying to add a target with

But it looks like having libraries in libexec is something already in
use by a few things.
On a Fedora 20 machine:
$ find /libexec -name \*.so
/usr/libexec/p7zip/7z.so
/usr/libexec/coreutils/libstdbuf.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/sudo_noexec.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/sudoers.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/group_file.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/system_group.so
/usr/libexec/systemtap/libHelperSDT_amd64.so
/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.3/liblto_plugin.so
/usr/libexec/deja-dup/tools/libduplicity.so

Shouldn't automake support installing libraries in libexec?
No. libexecdir is supposed to take binaries only.

IMO, these listed above are packaging bugs.
