The readable lint libraries (e.g., /usr/lib/llib-lc or /usr/lib/llib-lc.c)
aren't created from the binaries; the binaries are created from the
readable versions.
You can create a (binary) lint library from a .c file with 'lint -c' on
System V Release 2.0, or by hacking at the /usr/bin/lint shell script
(beware the magic -H flag, which remembers where it stores common
messages about header files; just zap it each time).
