Makefile.am and xxx_LDFLAGS seems not working

[Pauli Sundberg]

Hello!

I am trying to add -all-static flag for binaries compiled with autotools.

What i am doing wrong since to me it seems like _LDFLAGS is not working 
when i have _LDFLAGS defined in Automake.am:

> bin_PROGRAMS = linearize
>
> linearize_SOURCES = \
>         Linearize/linearize_main.c Linearize/linearizeParameters.c \
>         Linearize/linearizeParameters.h
>
> if COND_STATIC_BIN
>     linearize_LDFLAGS = -all-static
> endif

If i look at the generated Makefile i can find:

       linearize_LDFLAGS = -all-static

but the link command:
linearize$(EXEEXT): $(linearize_OBJECTS) $(linearize_DEPENDENCIES)
        @rm -f linearize$(EXEEXT)
        $(LINK) $(linearize_OBJECTS) $(linearize_LDADD) $(LIBS)

Where link is:
LINK = $(LIBTOOL) --tag=CC $(AM_LIBTOOLFLAGS) $(LIBTOOLFLAGS) \
        --mode=link $(CCLD) $(AM_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $(AM_LDFLAGS) \
        $(LDFLAGS) -o $@

seems to ignore these linearize_LDFLAGS.

Full Automake.am can be found from:

Generated automake.in:

And generated Makefile:

Any tips how to start figure out whats wrong? The project has lots of 
Autoconf files and i would rather not post them all here.

Thanks!
