OK, so the current gnulib now produces:

eliminating the need to add "-no-undefined" myself and also
eliminating the need for adding this to the end:

> libposix_la_LIBADD += \
>     $(ACOSL_LIBM)        $(ACOS_LIBM)         $(ASINL_LIBM) \

since adding this $(xxx_LIBM) stuff will work as well as part
of either LIBADD or LDFLAGS.  Thank you.

Still, the problem is the empty string replacement of @NEXT_STDDEF_H@
yielding this complaint during "make distcheck" (plain "make" works):
