There is no way to specify ")" as a substitution character in substitution
references nor in addprefix, addsuffix and the like.

Problem:  I have an automatically generated list of objects, say:

		A  := a.o b.o c.o ...

and I want to generate

		L  := libmylib.a(a.o) libmylib.a(b.o) libmylib.a(c.o) ...

Although adding "libmylib.a(" as a prefix works (maybe because it just
looks for a matching ")" ) I found no way to add the ")".  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Michael Fingerhut
