Since this is a convenience library, it's not actually linked. Or so I think.
Hoping this might fix this Appveyor failure:

This moves all the source listings in src/Makefile.am,
src/hb-ucdn/Makefile.am and util/Makefile.am into separate Makefile
snippets, so that they may be shared between different Makefile-based
build systems, such as NMake for Visual Studio.
