Details:

libtool: -export-dynamic implies --whole-archive
    
The usage of -export-dynamic implies that the program is going to load DSOs
that need some of the program's symbols.  However, the linker will still drop
anything that it doesn't see a reference to when linking archives.  This then
breaks when the DSO tries to use something from an archive that the linker
didn't bother to include.
    
* build-aux/ltmain.in:  if -export-dynamic is given, put
  -Wl,--whole-archive around any archives we link in.
    
This changeset is placed in the public domain.
