Hi Serge,

  Thinking about this I think that you should actually supply two arguments to
the script/tool/process that is invoked.  The first should be a keyword saying
which problem needs handling and the second should be a parameter for that
keyword.  So for example:

  addLibrary missing-library -loauth

The reason for this is that it allows the script to be extended to handle other
error situations in the future.  eg:

  <error-handling-script> missing-symbol foo

or

  <error-handling-script> duplicate-definition bar

If you feel that this is too much, then I would suggest that the option name
ought to be changed from --error-handling-script to --missing-library-helper
(or something similar).

Cheers
  Nick
