This is intentional. We are merging `libc++abi.a` into `libc++.a` but we ship `libc++abi.so` and `libc++.so` as separate (and use the generated linker script to pull in `libc++abi.so` when you pass `-lc++` to linker). I'd be fine merging `libc++abi.so` into `libc++.so` as well, but we'll need to figure out a transition plan since there are several places in our build right now that expect `libc++abi.so` to exist. We cannot land this change as is because that would break the `-static-libstdc++` use case, since Clang driver only passes `-lc++` to the linker and not `-lc++abi` and there's nothing that would pull `libc++abi.a` in.
