RE: libtool replace -Xlinker by -Wl can lead to problems

[Boehne, Robert]

Alternatively, I think gcc/g++/g77/gcj can use -Xlinker instead of -Wl.

Okay, at the moment there is only one known way for libtool to pass
options through to the linker, that is lt_prog_compiler_wl, which is
"-Wl," for most compilers currently supported by libtool. There is
currently no check if the compiler in question supports -Xlinker, so you
will find -Wl, is always used.

Perhaps we need another var (lt_prog_compiler_xlinker ?) for xlinker
arguments, but there must be some workaround for this to help you right
now, I just don't know what it is.
