I believe libtool supports both -Wl, and -Xlinker, and translates it
to -Wl, if it runs the compiler driver.

IIRC, libtool requires -R arguments to be a full pathname.

Now, what would be really great would be to have $ORIGIN supported
even on OSs that don't support it directly: in this case, libtool
would replace $ORIGIN with the installation -rpath of the library.
But it has to be taught about which OSs support $ORIGIN.
