In the simplest cases you need _nothing_ in src/Makevars. Just drop files
src/legacy.{c,h} and, say, src/legacyWrapper.cpp in src/, and everything
should work.
That is what the skeleton package does. (For RcppArmadillo we need to link
to BLAS/LAPACK/Fortran/... but not here.)
So if you check existing packages (easy to browse on GitHub too) you should
notice that very few, possibly none, set OBJECTS. None of mine do, methinks.
