[CIL users] file not recognized when "make" using cilly

[Jiandong W. <com...@gm...>]

Hello everyone,

  Now I'm trying to do merging on one program(faad2-2.7). When I try to
"make" it using cilly with the option "--merge", it complains "file not
recognized: File format not recognized". Here is i'm trying:

make CC="/home/username/cil/bin/cilly --merge --keepmerged"

the errors:
/bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link /home/simon/cil/bin/cilly --merge
--keepmerged -iquote ../include -g -O2   -o libfaad.la -rpath /usr/local/lib

the very same problem was discussed nearly three years ago at
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=19319722
but it seems no one have thrown one perfect answer.

anyone interested in reproducing this issue is encouraged to download the
codes:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/faac/faad2-2.7.tar.gz

any ideas?
