Sorry that this package seems like such spaghetti. As far as I know upstream
developed this, and then dumped it on the internet. I don't know if it has any
intentions of even taking patches. I would certainly appreciate help making a
shared library (I don't expect upstream to change at all, so we don't have to
worry too much about a soname other than .0).

The documentation is all plain text with a .doc extension. I can rename them
all to not have the .doc extension (or replace it with .txt or something) if
you like. I don't believe upstream has any interest in their code any more, but
it is still useful for SAGE ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/SciTech/SAGE
) which is why we would like to get it into Fedora.

The SAGE project seems to be happy with the code working reliably. I should
probably take a look at how they build it (
http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/was/sage/spkg/standard/symmetrica-2.0.p2.spkg
) but as far as I know they just build a libsymmetrica.a too.
