I saw your posts, but don't recall whether this is something you've
tried with libtool 1.5.2 or not. Have you? The libtool developers
have expressed extreme reluctance to spend much time on code that is
an evolutionary dead end. All new work is going into the 1.5.x and
later lines of development.

If you download libtool 1.4.3 and look at ltmain.in, you'll see about
a dozen places where
newlib_search_path
is set to something. In each case, the assignment ends up looking like
newlib_search_path="$newlib_search_path <something else here>"
If you try systematically changing these to
newlib_search_path="<something else here> $newlib_search_path"
you should eventually be able to arrive at the combination of settings
that are causing the problem for you. My *guess* (and that's all it is)
is that it's either the place where it's under a "case" for `-L', or it's
the place where you have
newlib_search_path="$newlib_search_path $ladir"
Do some testing, and report back what you find. Better yet, test with
libtool 1.5.2.
