picking a random two such files i happened to find on my disk:

~% head -2 /usr/lib/libwwwzip.la
# libwwwzip.la - a libtool library file
# Generated by ltmain.sh - GNU libtool 1.3.4 (1.385.2.196 1999/12/07 21:47:57)

~% file /usr/local/src/siege-2.09/lib/joedog/util.lo 
/usr/local/src/siege-2.09/lib/joedog/util.lo: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, Intel 80386, 
version 1, not stripped

(.lo is a roughly normal .o file under a different name, so make rules
can deal with it differently. note the "relocatable" bit)


next time, try looking at the file.  if it's text, take a guess based
on the comments (or content).  if it's binary, use file(1).
