Note to the list:

Andreas and me know each other back from 1994 when Linux
was young and building shared libraries was a real challenge.
I've sent Andreas an example project by email demonstrating
the proper use of Automake and Libtool for his case.
For short:

$ cat Makefile.am
SUBDIRS = B A1 A2
$ cat B/Makefile.am
noinst_LTLIBRARIES = libB.la

libB_la_SOURCES = B.c
$ cat A1/Makefile.am
lib_LTLIBRARIES = libA1.la

libA1_la_SOURCES = A1.c
libA1_la_LDFLAGS = -version-info 0:0:0
libA1_la_LIBADD = ../B/libB.la
$ cat A2/Makefile.am
lib_LTLIBRARIES = libA2.la

libA2_la_SOURCES = A2.c
libA2_la_LDFLAGS = -version-info 0:0:0
libA2_la_LIBADD = ../B/libB.la
