Looks like Albert's change from 2006-08-01 only went onto the 1.5 branch,
and not HEAD.  It should be on both branches.

I still maintain that it would be OK to have libtool automatically add
`-library=Crun', since that is generally needed whether you're using
-library=stlport4 or -library=Cstd, but it's OK to not include that.  We
just need to make sure the correct usage is documented somewhere.

If it's not currently documented (I don't know, I haven't checked the 2.x
series), I would be willing to write a little blurb for the info files
or some other spot, if people want.
