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.
