We're no longer using libtool, and with that goes a lot of details like
this. This is simply because Bakefile does not support libtool. I
would think a better patch is to change Bakefile so it uses libtool for
autoconf-based projects, but that's just me.

That only works for GCC. The whole purpose of libtool is to wrap up
details like this that differ between build systems.
