The fundamental reason is "that's where libtool wants to put it" -
my first thoughts were that this is a strange thing also, but I can't
seem to find a way to get libtool to install the shared lib to /lib
and the static lib to /usr/lib - it seems they both have to be in the
same place.

Can you elaborate on that? (how do they break?) They should not.
