Sorry, I had never heard of -Wl.  Do you know whether GCC has
supported -Wl for as long as it has supported -Xlinker?  If so, I'll
just change lib-ignore to use -Wl rather than -Xlinker.

That didn't work for me in "configure", since LDDPOSTPROC contains
constructs like "| sed ...", which meant ldd was passed "|" and "sed"
as arguments.

This isn't a problem any more, since lib-ignore doesn't use
LDDPOSTPROC, but I thought I'd mention it in case other people want to
use it.
