AM_CFLAGS               = @CFLAGS@

lib_LTLIBRARIES         = libopenhpi.la

libopenhpi_la_SOURCES   = \
...

There is only one library being built in this directory, so there can't be
an ordering issue here.  The other library is built in a different directory
which is listed well before in the SUBDIR order.  To be extra safe I even
added:

$(top_builddir)/utils/libopenhpiutils.la:
        make -C $(top_builddir)/utils libopenhpiutils.la

to the Makefile.am

There is no silver bullet.  Plus, werewolves make better neighbors
than zombies, and they tend to keep the vampire population down.
