It would help if you posted, for a library where this fails, the output
of the './libtool --mode=link' line with --debug added as first
argument; also, please post the output of
  ./libtool --tag=CXX --config

(I'm suspecting that -lm gets pulled in through C++ postdeps; however I
fail to see without data why func_mode_link doesn't weed it out again.)

Thanks,
Ralf
