Why do many buildroot library package scripts replace .lo with .o ?

I have been adding packages to buildroot for a project, and noticed that in 
several cases, adding the magic "sed 's/\.lo/.o/g'" line on Makefiles fixed 
some libtool problems.

My question is, what is this doing and why does it work?
