Libtool archives in private plugin/modules directories are harmless
as they are located outside build-time linker's search path. Such
directories must never be added to the search path via -L.

When these files are built, you just need to make sure that no
inter-library dependencies on external .la files are inserted, which
may break later when those files are removed.
