        Description

        There's a bunch of interrelated smelly code regarding static libraries on macosx.

        I started by turning libfdlibm into a static library on macosx, as on all other platforms. It turned out that we don't have proper support for static libraries on macosx, so I fixed this too.

        Secondly, I removed the libjli_static.a for macosx. There is no good reason to have it. It's probably just a left-over from the old Apple port to macosx. This in turn prompted some additional related cleanup in LauncherCommon.gmk.
