Why? I believe someone coined the term bikeshedding :)
More seriously, that would make varnishd (and consequently VMODs)
link against the contents of the current libvarnishapi, which feels
backwards at least to me (and maybe Brinch-Hansens=)
If libvarnish consumers start linking against it, that means
libvarnishapi will link and tools authors will automatically benefit
from libvarnish's contents with no extra effort.

They aren't really shared, libvarnishapi consumes half of libvarnish.
I don't think libvarnish consumes anything but libc and pcre. But if
you collapse them it should be under the name libvarnishapi to avoid
breaking everyone's pkgconfig.
