Hmm, well the latest Debian libtool claimed to have such a patch, but
at least for guile and heimdal, it didn't fix the problem, though
perhaps these packages aren't using the automake variables the way
that libtool would prefer.

For libguile, we have:

  libguile_la_DEPENDENCIES = @LIBLOBJS@
  libguile_la_LIBADD = @LIBLOBJS@ $(LIBLTDL) $(THREAD_LIBS_LOCAL)
  libguile_la_LDFLAGS = -version-info 
@LIBGUILE_INTERFACE_CURRENT@:@LIBGUILE_INTERFACE_REVISION@:@LIBGUILE_INTERFACE_AGE@
 -export-dynamic -no-undefined

where $(THREAD_LIBS_LOCAL) := ../qt/libqthreads.la
