Ok, thanks for your help Eli, but the rule used is not this one!
You're right, I defined a wrong rule.
The wrong rule I used to make library was:

(%.o): %.c
        $(CC) -c $% $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $<
        $(AR) cr $@ $%
        $(RM) $%

and the correct one should be (without the $%):

(%.o): %.c
        $(CC) -c $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $<
        $(AR) cr $@ $%
        $(RM) $%

Ok, now when I execute the makefile, all the objects files are generated.
But, at the end, I get an error message:

------------------------------------
gcc -c  -s -O2 -Wall -pedantic sflxmll.c
sflxmll.c: In function `get_next_element_token':

Can you help me?
