The explicit rule in /Makefile.am to build libust-initializer.o was
not being considered. This is because programs that depend on it
were being built before it, triggering the use of an implicit rule
to build it.
Changing SUBDIRS in /Makefile.am to include "." insures
libust-initializer.o is built first with the right rule.

+# The order here is tricky. SUBDIRS applies both to compilation and
+# installation. Programs depending on the libs must be built after
+# libust and '.' (that contains the linker script). However, '.'
+# must be installed after libust so it can overwrite libust.so with
+# the linker script.
