I was thinking that a _LT_DECL variable should be added to libtool.m4
that instructed ltmain to enable this code branch instead of adding
more compiler/system checks to ltmain. That would make it trivial to
disable it where appropriate.

And cl is already (allegedly) supported by libtool via the cccl script,
this code will add further rot to that "support" if some kind of
tool chain discrimination is not added.
