libtool and gcc -m*

[Bob Friesenhahn]

I now have a simple fix that allows -m64 to be passed through libtool
to the compiler to create 64-bit shared libraries under Solaris.
However, I am wondering if perhaps libtool should pass all gcc -m*
options for all targets since these options may influence which
libraries are used, or which startup objects are used.  It seems wrong
of libtool to make assumptions about this.

Opinions?
