Summary:                    Linking $<TARGET_OBJECTS:...> into a static library
is broken with Xcode 6
Description: 
Trying to use $<TARGET_OBJECTS:...> to link an object target into a static
library is broken with Xcode 6 because it uses separate flags for linking static
libraries.

Steps to Reproduce: 
- Create an object library target with a source file compiled in.
- Create a static library that links the object library in.
- Create a binary that uses something from the original source file and links
the static library in.
- Compiling will result in undefined symbols.

Additional Information: 
Previously the OTHER_LDFLAGS variable was respected but now it uses
OTHER_LIBTOOLFLAGS which breaks things because the old variable was used to
specify the list of extra object files to link into the static library target.
